Uvex Stance adult ski helmet - black

EXPERIENCE

The Stance helmet has been designed to provide maximum comfort. Its thick, breathable cap and adjustable ventilation will guarantee you excellent thermal comfort. The ears of the helmet are slightly hollowed out to limit pressure on the cartilage of the ears. Its ABS shell ensures more durability. Its micrometric tightening buckle enables simple and quick adjustment of the chinstrap.

COMPATIBILITY

Carefully check compatibility with your mask. Each brand uses its own helmet/mask curvatures. Your mask must fit your helmet as well as possible to avoid the "cold strip" on your forehead.

ADJUSTMENT WHEEL

The tightening wheel allows you to adjust the rear part of the helmet.

ABS STRUCTURE

This type of structure incorporates an outer shell, made of ABS, injection moulded to withstand powerful impacts. It offers high resistance to bumps and knocks. The internal EPOS skullcap absorbs impact and collision at the time of impact. We recommend changing your ski helmet at least every 5 years unless it has sustained a significant impact in the meantime.

EN 1077 Standard

Standard EN 1077 is a European standard that applies to helmets used for cranial protection during downhill skiing and snowboarding. This standard tests the ability to absorb shocks and resistance to penetration. There are 2 categories:

- Class A: protects the top and back of the head, as well as the ears and the side of the head

.- Class B: Protects the top and back of the head but does not cover the ears.

WHAT SIZE?

* Measure your head’s circumference in centimetres (around the middle of the forehead and just above the ears).

* Choose the size that covers this measurement.

Example: if you have a head circumference of 56 cm, you should try a helmet in size 55-59 cm.

FITTING

Take plenty of time to try it on properly. You shouldn't feel any areas of discomfort. If you do then try another model. Always try your helmet with your mask, because not all helmets go with all masks. A helmet is compatible with a ski mask when there is no air space between the top of the mask and the helmet.

HELMET ADJUSTMENT

During practice, the ski helmet must be properly fitted and adjusted:

* It is essential to choose the right size.

* The head circumference must be adjusted using the thumb wheel.

* The chinstrap must be properly adjusted.

It's a bit like the seat belt in a car: if it’s too loose, it will not perform its function and you will be less protected.
