The Tech Behind the Shell
2Vi® Helmet Technology Platform
Stronger. Lighter. Better. We’ve developed our own high-performance design and technology platform that helps us relentlessly evolve our helmets to be safer and more comfortable, without compromising on weight and volume. For the Volata (Carbon) 2Vi® Mips Race Helmet, this resulted in a race helmet created to outperform in every way.
2-layer Mips® Safety System
We employ the specifically developed low-friction Mips system as a layer within the Volata (Carbon) 2Vi® Mips Race Helmet to reduce harmful forces that might otherwise be transferred to the head during an impact or crash. So, a tumble isn’t going to stop you.
FIS-Approved
The Volata (Carbon) 2Vi® Mips Race Helmet is FIS-approved and developed in close cooperation with our World Cup athletes.
Toolless Chin Guard Mount
The Volata 2Vi® Mips Race Helmet is equipped to accommodate a tool-less mountable chin guard for added protection from those gates.
*The chin guard is sold separately!
Gate- and Impact Shields
We know those gates give your head a battering. That’s why we’ve crafted specific shield areas, constructed from in-mold EPP and EPS, into the helmet to stand up to gate impacts and distribute them over a larger surface area. And of course, if you lose that line, these shields are there to protect you from hitting the terrain at unforgiving speed.
TPU Edge with Snap-in Lining
The inner parts of a helmet protect your head of course, but no-one wants their race focus disrupted by discomfort. So, we’ve engineered the Volata (Carbon) 2Vi® Mips Race Helmet’s TPU liner to not only mitigate energy in a crash, but also be snap-in. Meaning it’s positioned just right and can be washed to stay fresh for every training or race day.
Updated Ear Vents
In the heat of the race, you don’t want to be overheating. We concentrated on creating optimum air flow in the helmet, so you can keep your momentum through all the adrenalin, noise, and vibration on your way to the finish line.
Emergency Removable Ear Pads
When your sole purpose in racing is to push the limits of speed, crashing out is always a possibility. So, we focused on a design that ensures nothing obstructs emergency responders if they need to provide assistance.
