2011 RED Helmets and Protection Tech Summary
RIDE FOREVER Bailing 20 times before you land it, pushing through the blood, bruises, and fear—that’s what RED is all about. It’s the first on the hill and the last to leave, riding every day, every night, hiking ’til the last patch melts. It’s non-stop laps in the rain, waking up at 4am to hit a handrail, and feeling the freedom of linking that first turn. For those who aren’t afraid of what it takes to reach the next level, welcome.
From the first snowboard-specific helmet in history to our latest creations like the superior fit of the RED Air™ Fit System and premium sound of REDphones, we remain dedicated to our shredding founders, formative designers, and fearless riders. With the latest in lightweight materials, rider-driven features, and easily customizable designs, RED makes protection a no-brainer.
