At the outset of the MX helmet project, Alpinestars product philosophy was applied and a set of specific objectives set: Create the most advanced, protective and performance enhancing helmet possible. Primary objective: protection \u2013 to create the most high performance protection possible. Secondary objective: to give excellent ventilation, comfort and reduced weight.<\/p>\n
Alpinestars approach to the creation of the advanced technology in the Supertech M8 draws on its depth of experience from over half a decade of world class innovation across the spectrum of motorsports and especially, its deep rooted commitment to motocross. As with all other categories of technology that Alpinestars has mastered, bringing a new, highly complex, product to fruition requires specialist experience and know-how and a project plan led by the best brains in protection development.<\/p>\n
Hence Alpinestars Helmet Development Department was created and given the brief to research and develop the most protective and most comfortable possible motocross helmet. The goal was to allow riders to push the limits of performance, benefiting from confidence inspiring safety technology, reduced weight distribution to minimise muscular effort in the neck, shoulders and back and improved physiological and cognitive performance with a supremely well fitting and well ventilated construction, optimizing comfort while riding.<\/p>\n
The design is coherent to Alpinestars philosophy and shares distinctive themes with other products in the portfolio; a smooth, attractive, profile which is streamlined and free of any external channels and features that might act as a load point in an impact, or compromise the overall integrity of the construction. The surface curvature promotes reduced friction on impact, allowing deflection and the most efficient transfer of energy to protect the rider\u2019s head from direct force to the skull and referred to the neck and spinal column. The aperture is designed to accommodate a wide variety of goggles and the air vents in the shell are located to maximize ventilation efficiency.<\/p>\n
The S-M8 shell has been profiled with performance as a priority and with a design style that identifies the profile of the helmet and its sculpted surface as uniquely \u2018Alpinestars\u2019.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
Alpinestars krossikiivri arendusprojekti alguses seati eesm\u00e4rgiks v\u00e4lja t\u00f6\u00f6tada k\u00f5ige kaasaegsem ja turvalisem offroad kiiver. Peamine prioriteet on turvalisus ning teises j\u00e4rgus p\u00f6\u00f6rati t\u00e4helepanu v\u00f5imalikult heale ventilatsioonile, mugavusele ja kergusele.
\nAlpinestars’il on aastatepikkune kogemus offroad turvavarustuse tootmisel ja arendamisel ning kiivri projekti kaasati oma ala tipptegijad. Tulemuseks on kiiver, millel on k\u00f5ige kaasaegsemad tehnoloogiad, v\u00f5imalikult madal kaal, et v\u00e4hendada kaelale ja seljale m\u00f5juvaid j\u00f5udusid ning maksimaalne kasutusmugavus ja ventilatsioon.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":31,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":[],"class_list":["post-27","product","type-product","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","product_cat-kiivrid","product_cat-offroad","align-left","box-shadow-0","box-shadow-2-hover","ast-product-gallery-layout-horizontal","ast-product-tabs-layout-horizontal"],"yoast_head":"\n
