Product description

Oakley Mod5 ski helmet white (FOS900641)

The Oakley Mod5 white ski helmet integrates advanced protective technologies and ergonomic solutions, catering to all-mountain skiers seeking reliability in various conditions. The thoughtful Hybrid construction combines impact resistance with everyday comfort, ensuring a balance between safety and comfort during intense descents.

Innovative protective technologies

The Oakley Mod5 helmet employs the advanced Mips® brain protection system, which minimises rotational forces during impacts, enhancing safety even in challenging situations on the slopes. The SKULL MATRIX system integrates key solutions that reduce the effects of overloads, providing improved head protection in critical moments. The Fidlock® magnetic buckle allows for quick and convenient fastening even while wearing gloves, significantly streamlining helmet handling on the ski slopes.

Materials and shell construction

The helmet shell is made from durable Duramatter material, polycarbonate (PC), and expanded polystyrene (EPS), ensuring high impact resistance while maintaining low weight and optimal protection. The Hybrid construction allows for a combination of stiffness and flexibility, increasing user safety during dynamic maneuvers. Active ventilation facilitates the dissipation of excess heat, contributing to comfort even during intense exertion.

Comfort systems and ergonomics

The BOA® adjustment system allows for precise fitting of the helmet to the head shape, eliminating pressure points and increasing comfort during prolonged use. Inside, Polartec® material is used, effectively managing moisture and providing a pleasant feeling of warmth. Soft ear pads and breathable solutions further enhance thermal comfort and acoustics, making communication on the slopes easier.

Advantages

PC shell

The shell is made of durable polycarbonate. It is a durable and abrasion- and impact-resistant material, characterised by its low weight. It is able to dissipate more impact force than thermoplastic and is relatively cheap to produce, resulting in a more attractive helmet price.

Passive ventilation

Permanently integrated into the helmet, the ventilation channels let fresh air in through the openings at the front and let excess heat and moisture out through the rear openings. Thanks to this solution, the goggles do not evaporate and the head is kept comfortable during activity.

Fidlock fastener

The chin strap uses a Fidlock type fastener. This is a simple fastener that operates using magnets. Its operation is quick and easy, even with thick ski gloves. It is both strong and durable.

Size adjustment using the BOA® system

This is an advanced helmet adjustment system using thin steel cables that allow the helmet to be adjusted even more precisely to the head. This system provides a quick vertical adjustment, even with one hand. It also prevents the material from rolling off during adjustment.

Soft ear muffs

Soft ear muffs are a different helmet design with ear muffs that are not overlapped by the helmet shell. They are extremely soft and protect the ears from the cold without interfering with sound reception. They do not, however, provide protection against injuries that may occur in the event of an accident.

EPS inner shell

Under the outer, impact-resistant shell, there is an inner layer made of polystyrene. It has a varying density and its main function is to absorb the force of impact during an accident. It provides a good level of safety.

ASTM F2040 certification

This is an American safety standard, more stringent than the European CE 1077 ECC standard. The test involves dropping the helmet on three types of impact anvils at different speeds. However, point tests and chin strap tests are omitted. A helmet with this certification ensures safety during a crash.

Technologies

Polartec®

Technology involving polyester fibres that provide adequate thermal comfort and effectively wick away moisture.

MIPS®

Multidirectional Impact Protection System - A common impact protection system used in helmets. Its purpose is to protect against the rotational movement that occurs during a severe impact. MIPS absorbs the first shock, minimising the risk of brain damage.

SKULL MATRIX

Combines MIPS® and BOA® technology into one system for a snug fit, increased comfort and a better riding experience.

Fidlock®

Magnetic locking systems, characterised by simplicity of use and durability. Modular technology provides the user with a multitude of fastening options.
