The Helmet used 360-degree Turbine Technology which is placed strategically around the interior part of the helmet to protect against both Linear acceleration impact and rotational forces impact to prevent from brain twist inside the skull. The best brain protection of 2021. Better than MIPS.
Before we talk about how to protect our brain with the best helmet available, let's study a bit on how we can possibly get internal brain injury from the impact.
Whenever your head hit with something really hard, linear impact forces and rotational impact forces were created. Usually, your brain moves along with your head at the same speed. Because of those impacts and the sudden stop, it will move internally in a linear direction or rotational direction depends on the impact force.
What are linear impact forces?
Linear forces are straight-ahead forces that snap a rider's head violently forward or backward upon impact. Linear acceleration injuries are caused by straight-line forces brought about by abrupt deceleration of the brain as it moves through space.
What are the rotational impact forces?
In contrast, rotational acceleration injuries are caused by nonlinear forces that twist the brain inside the skull, namely rotational forces. These occur due to impact to the side of a rider's head, violently whipping the rider's head to one side. The brain is most sensitive to rotational motion. While both rotational and linear forces play a part in nearly every impact on the head, experts believe that rotational forces are far more harmful to the brain.
The answer is Yes. There is no cheap and good. It is cheap for a reason. All cheap helmet doesn't protect you from those internal injuries. They are just a hard foam that protects you from physical contact with the other objects in one direction only. Some expensive helmets with multi-directional protection will protect you from the multi-directional hit e.g MIPS but only slowing down the rotational forces but not the linear direction direct impact. Therefore, we brought you " The Leatt helmets ".
The Helmet used 360-degree Turbine Technology which is placed strategically around the interior part of the helmet to protect against both Linear acceleration impact and rotational forces impact to prevent from brain twist inside the skull.
Dr.Daniel Plant developed the revolutionary " smart material" that absorbs the force which nowadays used in a spaceship to a bike helmet. This material is also used in protective clothing for the elderly to prevent hip injuries as well. Leatt brings this material to their helmet and developed the turbines that harden when it hit another surface to absorb the linear impact energy before returning to the flexible state. They also stay flexible to move along in a plane and displace the rotational energy to reduce the twist of the brain inside the skull.
In 2021, Leatt introduces its 360-degree turbine technology to all their helmets. Therefore, it doesn't matter, you buy the low ends or high ends range, you will get the same protection and prevention but only weight and comfort will matters.
There is nothing more important than the brain we have. We don't think it is a good idea to compromise the safety of it. You have only one brain and keep it safe. There is no successful brain transplant yet. Neurosurgeon Robert J. White tried on a monkey and died after nine days. So, Think twice before you purchase the helmet.
if you want to keep your brain safe and sound, check out the helmets here that we offer.
