Alpinestars Supertech M8 Solid Helmets

Alpinestars Supertech M8 Solid Helmets

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 – to create the most high-performance protection possible.
- Secondary objective: to give excellent ventilation, comfort, and reduced weight 

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.

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 ‘Alpinestars’. Another key feature is the S-M8 shell sizing solution; each helmet fit size has its own appropriate shell size to deliver the most anatomical solution for the wide variety of fit needs worldwide.

Features:

• ECE/DOT
• Shell construction utilizes a highly advanced molding technology with a multi-composite combination: uni-directional carbon composite with aramid layer that gives significant radial strength around the shell, reventing compression but allowing controlled deflection for reducing transmitted impact energy, and providing critical penetration protection
• 4 anatomical shell sizes
• Multi-density EPS polymer liner
• Patented A-Head fitting height and angle adjustment system
• Unique, patented visor release system
• Collarbone protection feature at the shell base
• Multi-directional Impact Protection System (MIPS)
• Emergency Release System (ERS)
• Eject inflation system fitment inside the crown of the shell
• Adult Medium = 2.9lbs
