These 8 sizes are carefully designed across 3 outer shell molds – our competitors only use 2. The Carbon Fiber Altitude Helmet is available in 8 sizes from XS to 4XL (Thermoplastic Altitude available in 11 sizes from Youth small to Adult 4XL). First, we created a custom interior EPS matched with a premium removable liner. The Altitude was designed with two key fit metrics in mind: Rider fit & Goggle fit. The unique aerodynamic visor features a locking-top center mount that holds the visor in place and prevents unwanted visor movement. And for those cold days, snap in the included cold weather breath box. Overall, the Altitude features 8 intake/exhaust vent ports. The Altitude helmet features 6 integrated vent scoops that provide necessary ventilation to keep you comfortable when riding. These channels are integrated directly into shell and direct adequate air flow into the specially designed vent scoops. Innovative aerodynamic channels run across the entire contour of the helmet.
In addition to its safety accolades, performance was a key focus during the development process. The outer shell is made of specially designed carbon fiber for maximum shell strength with minimal weight. The front chin area of the helmet is protected by a specially designed expanded polyurethane chin insert that provides front impact protection. It features an innovative dual density, interlocking EPS foam liner that provides top crash protection in the event of an accident. The Altitude helmet meets or exceeds DOT & ECE 2205 safety certification standards. If you are looking for the very best snowmobile helmet, look no further than the All- new 2016 509 Carbon Fiber Altitude helmet. Strength aside, the Carbon Fiber Altitude is noticeably lighter than its thermoplastic counterpart.
All-new for 2016 is the full Carbon Fiber Altitude helmet – the same fit and function you’ve come to expect, now crafted from one of the strongest materials on the planet. Despite the rave reviews and success of this helmet, we went back to the drawing board and asked, “How can we improve?” The result….CARBON FIBER! You heard correctly. Described as a sleek yet aggressive helmet, it is packed with industry-leading features. Last season the innovative 509 Altitude helmet took the snowmobile industry by storm.
