The Ventral SPIN sets a new benchmark for aerodynamic performance, safety, and ventilation in a road bike helmet. The Ventral SPIN features a unique design that ensures it is the fastest and safest road bike helmet we have produced. The Ventral SPIN has been designed with specific airflow zones in the helmet to create different pressure zones. The airflow zones also create superior ventilation and cooling, which improves the overall performance of the helmet. Featuring POC's patent pending rotational impact protection system, SPIN, the internal shearing pads help reduce the effects of an oblique (angled impact) fall by reducing the amount of force transmitted to the head. The Ventral SPIN is extremely lightweight yet features a fully wrapped unibody shell construction for extra security and an EPS liner optimized for the perfect balance between weight and safety.

• PROTECTION: Integrated with patent pending POC SPIN (shearing pad inside), which helps reduce the effects of an oblique (angled impact) fall by reducing the amount of force transmitted to the head
• BREATHE: Featuring extreme cooling, ventilation, and accelerated airflow zones
• TOUGH: Fully wrapped unibody shell construction to increase safety and helmet integrity

The POCito Skull for kids has the same technologies as POC's adult race helmets but provides improved impact absorption at lower speeds and force. It has a full aramid penetration barrier to protect from sharp objects and the helmet has also adjustable sizing, which allows the child to grow with the helmet. The helmet comes in fluorescent colors with reflective stickers to maximize visibility and ultimately avoid collisions with other skiers. There is also an accessory pack including a LED light and a fluorescent vest. The goggle clip has a My Info-print for the parent's contact information.

With the POC POCito kids' helmet, your children will enjoy the same protection as you while you're out on the slopes, as it's created with the same features as the Swedish company's adult models. The POCito has a softer lining that provides improved shock absorption for delicate little heads, and can grow with your child thanks to an adjustable sizing system. The helmet comes with some surprising add-ins, as well, including a contact info panel near the goggle clip (in case your kiddo gets lost) that also lists emergency medical information, a Recco avalanche rescue reflector, bright orange ski bib, reflective accents, and a helmet-mounted LED flashing light.

For maximum safety, the little helmet comes in bright colors with reflective accents and an LED light mount on the back (includes light).

POC Snow Helmets

POC has worked intensively with leading experts to understand every detail regarding how a helmet should be constructed, with the sole objective of creating better protection than ever before. When POC began, there were two types of helmets on the market:

• The first type of helmet was a traditional helmet with a hard shell and a liner of softer expanded polystyrene (EPS), which has good penetration resistance and energy distribution properties. The disadvantage of the hard shell is that upon impact, the hard structure causes a sudden stop. The brain may continue to move in the direction of travel and the impact is not absorbed very well. Hard shell helmets are also quite heavy, which may cause the helmet to bounce off the ground on impact.
• The second type of helmet was an "in-mold" helmet, which originated in the field of cycling. These molded helmets have a thinner shell of hard plastic that covers the ears and the back of the neck.

Normally, both the traditional hard shell and in-mold helmets rely on expanded polystyrene (EPS) for shock absorption. EPS absorbs energy by plastic deformation, meaning it is deformed permanently upon impact. Therefore, a helmet liner made of EPS will not be good at absorbing repetitive shocks, while also providing poor protection from the effects of rotational violence, which is a major risk at oblique impacts.

POC's patent-pending Aramid Ballistic Penetration (APB) barrier, however, offers better shock absorption, lower weight, and improved penetration resistance. For snow sport use, the APB shell is combined with a patent-pending, Ventilated Double Shell Anti Penetration (VDSAP). The concept was initially developed for the Receptor+ all-season helmet. Developed and certified in Europe and the US for skiing, snowboarding, skateboarding, biking, and water sports, VDSAP is built with double shells, placed offset, for maximum penetration resistance with channels to evacuate heat, moisture, or water. The inner shell is an extremely thin in-mold shell, while the outer shell is a hard shell of ABS and PC.

The Auric Cut Backcountry SPIN sets a new standard for on and off piste safety for ski and snowboarders. Featuring POC's patent pending rotational impact protection system, SPIN, the internal shearing pads help reduce the effects of an oblique (non-head-on collision) fall by reducing the amount of force transmitted to the head. SPIN works by allowing pads placed inside the helmet to shear in any direction during an oblique impact, helping to protect your head during the fall. By using the innovative and unique pad technology, which sits directly against the user's head, SPIN pads allow the helmet to move relative to the head during a fall.

• PROTECTION: Integrated with patent pending POC SPIN (shearing pad inside), which helps reduce the effects of an oblique (angled impact) fall by reducing the amount of force transmitted to the head.
• LINER: The EPP liner provides maximum impact protection in case of a significant fall and will not deform permanently on impact. Can withstand multiple impacts with a very limited loss of performance.
• INTEGRATION: Features an integrated Recco reflector that will support being searchable in the backcountry.
• ADJUSTMENT: Size adjustment system offers a superb and flexible fit and the adjustable vents on the front and top of the helmet provide adjustable ventilation.
• DURABILITY: Made from a robust ABS (Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene) shell and weighs 625 grams.
