The Freejump Voronoï Carbon Riding Helmet with Black Crystals elevates an iconic design with the perfect combination of advanced safety and sophisticated elegance.
This striking helmet features a sleek black carbon shell, complemented by a gloss vent and visor, both adorned with black Preciosa crystals for a subtle yet eye-catching finish.
Renowned for their craftsmanship since 1948, Preciosa crystals deliver exceptional quality and brilliance, making them the ideal embellishment for this statement riding hat.
Construction
Carbon: The outer shell is made from carbon fibre, a high-tech material with layers of interwoven fibres to offer exceptional impact resistance.
In-moulding: A sheet of polycarbonate is overmolded over the inner shell, adding an additional protective barrier between the outer shell and the EPS shell.
EPS shell: The use of a carbon outer shell and in-moulding technology allows the use of a particularly absorbent low-density EPS foam inside.
Temporal protection: the Freejump Voronoï Carbon is the first riding helmet with temporal protection, reducing the risk of concussion in the most fragile part of the skull.
Safety First
Temple protection is crucial in reducing the risk of concussion to the most vulnerable part of the skull: the temporal region, which accounts for 80% of serious brain injuries.
Behind the temporal bone lies the meningeal artery, where even a minor impact can cause a hematoma, compressing brain tissue and potentially resulting in severe after-effects or even fatal consequences.
The Voronoï Carbon Helmet is the first riding helmet to specifically protect this area, absorbing and distributing shock across a wider surface to minimise impact and enhance rider safety.
Comfortable and Lightweight
The internal shell is crafted from one of the most absorbent EPS (expanded polystyrene) foams available, providing exceptional shock absorption. An integrated rib between the upper outer shell and the lower temporal area reinforces the structure, delivering crush resistance well above industry standards.
Drawing inspiration from bicycle and ski helmet technologies, Freejump has incorporated a polycarbonate sheet directly over the EPS foam. This in-moulding method, combined with the carbon fibre outer shell, creates a robust three-layer construction that offers outstanding impact resistance.
The interior lining, made from premium Italian fabric, ensures maximum comfort, breathability, and support. Fully removable and washable at 30°C, it keeps the helmet fresh and hygienic.
Despite its advanced construction, the Voronoï Carbon Helmet remains exceptionally lightweight at approximately 600g, providing unparalleled comfort during extended wear.
Design and Ventilation
Inspired by the distinctive geometric Voronoï pattern that gives the helmet its name, the two external vents (front and rear) are strategically positioned to optimise airflow and provide exceptional thermal regulation.
The Voronoï pattern, composed of irregular geometric cells, creates a striking visual effect reminiscent of delicate dragonfly wings. Each cell is precisely engineered to maximise both structural strength and ventilation, enhancing safety, breathability, and overall comfort.
The internal shell features 20 additional vents, ensuring excellent airflow throughout the helmet. The front of the interior lining incorporates an ABS half-moon insert, complete with two openings to channel incoming air efficiently, keeping the rider’s head cool even during extended wear.
