Shark Helmets Safety Features

Shark integrates safety into its helmets in this sequential way:

1. SAFETY RESEARCH:

• Cutting edge lab research
• Research in the application of new materials
• Motorcycle accidentology study with "CEESAR" (a Central European group working to reduce head injuries from road accidents. They study the biomechanics of accident shocks and the resulting impact forces on the head in order to provide scientific analysis for improved safety efforts.

2. SHARK HELMET DEVELOPMENT:

• Shock absorption
• Optimum shapes and dynamic reactions
• Vision field and optical quality
• Development testing

3. PRODUCTION

• Quality control
• Production testing

4. CHOOSING AND USING

• Choose your helmet
