The helmet utilizes the Slytech NoShock technology that features an internal Honeycomb Cone Structure made from the Slytech 2nd Skin XT material (the blue stuff). This structure is co-molded into an EPS foam liner to provide high structural strength and allow for the dissipation of impact energy in multiple directions. In a demonstration at their booth, a steel ball was dropped onto several types of absorption foam materials, and the ball bounced to varying degrees on all of them except for the 2nd Skin XT; it stopped it dead.
They’re now offering the helmet with the Infinite Rotational Acceleration Absorption, or Infinite R.A.A. technology which provides a 360-degree flotation system that helps reduce rotational accelerations to the head during impact. It mimics the natural cushioning behavior of the fluid between the skull and the brain. The system utilizes twelve absorption units made with a slip surface and elastic absorption layer. Unlike the MIPS system, its part of the padding system so it won’t affect the fit of the helmet.
Shred’s Infinite R.A.A is also available on the company’s full-face helmet the Brain Box ($249.00) and the dirt jumping helmet the Bumper Light ($119.00).
