The ALPINESTARS Supertech R10 Element Helmet is a high-performance racing helmet designed for optimal safety, aerodynamics, and rider comfort. Crafted with advanced molding technology, this helmet features a multi-composite outer shell that combines a 3K high-density carbon layer, uni-directional carbon, aramid fiber, and fiberglass. The result is a lightweight yet incredibly strong shell that efficiently dissipates energy upon impact, providing enhanced protection during high-speed racing scenarios. The layered composite construction is bonded with epoxy resin, carefully controlling the resin-to-fiber ratio to maximize strength and mechanical performance while keeping weight to a minimum. This design ensures limited outer shell deflection and a wider energy spread across the helmet, which is absorbed effectively by the multi-density EPS liner. The EPS liner itself consists of eight pieces with six different densities, strategically positioned to absorb impact forces more efficiently and protect the rider's head during collisions. Additionally, the liner's eight-piece construction allows for a close, comfortable fit that enhances both safety and comfort. Designed with advanced impact management features, the Supertech R10's smooth, low-friction inner surface allows for superior management of linear and oblique impacts. The specially coated and polished EPS surface reduces friction, enabling the helmet's interior to move independently of the rider*s head during oblique impacts. This motion significantly reduces the transfer of force to the head, neck, brain, and spine, helping to lower the risk of concussions. The helmet also features the innovative A-Head Fitment System, allowing riders to precisely adjust the helmet's height and tilt, ensuring a perfect fit tailored to individual preferences for maximum safety and comfort. In terms of aerodynamics, the Supertech R10 has been developed using CFD simulations and validated through wind tunnel and track testing. It features two aerodynamic spoilers*standard and race versions*with elastic joints that detach upon significant impact, reducing rotational energy transfer. The helmet is further stabilized with lateral winglets and a visor equipped with turbulators to improve aero-acoustic performance, making it ideal for high-speed racing conditions. Ventilation is also a priority, with 11 intake and exhaust points, including large top vents with adjustable sliders, chin vents, and lateral exhaust ports. These features promote active airflow, channeling fresh air over the rider's head and efficiently exhausting hot air, ensuring optimal comfort during intense racing sessions. Overall, the ALPINESTARS Supertech R10 Element Helmet combines cutting-edge materials, aerodynamic efficiency, and advanced impact mitigation technology to provide race-ready protection for professional and serious amateur racers alike. Its lightweight design, customizable fit, and superior ventilation make it a top choice for those demanding the best in safety and performance on the track.
