Technological Features of Scorpion Helmets

All motorcyclists are required by law to wear a motorcycle helmets when cruising on the road. A motorcycle helmet protects a motorcycle driver's head and face from serious injury in case the motorcycle crashes. It is very likely that the injuries will be fatal if the head is unprotected by a helmet.

Many companies produce motorcycle helmets. One of the best motorcycle helmet producers is ScorpionExo.

Helmets from ScorpionExo are designed and engineered by the world's best helmet designers. ScorpionExo ensures the customer that the helmet he bought is high-quality, durable, and well above the safety standard stipulated by the safety board.

Each helmet is made of state-of-the-art materials. The outer shell is made out of fiberglass and Kevlar matrix. This thin yet durable material prevents sharp objects from penetrating the helmet, thus protecting the wearer's skull. This shell also provides structure to the inner lining so the latter won't be destroyed upon contact.

The outer shell is also wind-tunnel tested and aero tuned, which means that it is designed to be aerodynamic the helmet cuts through wind resistance. Additionally, it is equipped with an EPS-lined chin bar for extra protection of the lower part of the face.

Underneath the hard shell is the helmet's thicker but softer liner. The liner, made from impact-resistant foam, crushes during an impact. This crushing action delays the time and the distance over which the helmet stops and lessens the deceleration of the head as it sinks into the foam. The foam is quite firm, preventing the head from hitting the hard outer shell too hard during a crash.

Scorpion helmets are also equipped with HelmetPump, designed exclusively by ScorpionExo. This device allows the rider to adjust the helmet's fit on his head. This is done by inflating or deflating the specially designed air-adjustable cheek pads.

The helmet is also equipped with SpeedView. This device is a retractable light smoke sun visor placed inside the helmet. SpeedView reduces eye strain by adjusting to the condition and intensity of the daylight. And this can be done without changing the face shields!

SpeedShift quick-change shield system, exclusively designed by ScorpionExo, is another feature of these helmets. The technology allows the wearer to easily change the face shield in just a few seconds. Furthermore, the wearer doesn't need any tools to remove and reattach the SpeedShift face shield.

All of ScorpionExo's face shields are also installed with the EverClear no-fog system. The system, as its name implies, prevents condensation, which can impair a driver's vision, from forming. It is also scratch resistant. In addition, the helmet is equipped with a breath deflector to further reduce condensation.

The KwickWick liner is another feature present in all helmets produced by ScorpionExo. The liner and cheek pads wicks away sweat, keeping your head dry. Since it does not retain the moisture, the helmet won't smell odorous. The liner is breathable, removable, and washable.

For extra comfort, each helmet also features adjustable front and rear vents, which allow air to go inside. A specially designed wind spoiler at the back of the helmet reduces lift, creates a vacuum, and forces the airflow through the helmet.
