Arai Corsair-X Nakagami 3 Helmet - Snell 2020

Arai Corsair X Nakagami 3 Helmet

The Arai Corsair-X Helmet elevates rider safety and helmet technology by focusing not only on protection from direct impacts but also on reducing the effects of angled impacts. With a robust shell design and a smoother contour, this helmet is engineered to redirect rather than absorb impact energy, thereby lessening the force that reaches the wearer. The incorporation of the VAS (Variable Axis System) with a smaller, lower-placed side pod and pivot cover further enhances its ability to glide off impact energies. Featuring a chin curtain, it mitigates air intrusion and improves exhaust ventilation by creating a negative pressure environment. Additionally, the helmet is lined with Arai's distinct 5mm peel-away padding around the ear pockets, which are also recessed to fit communication speakers seamlessly.

PB SNC2 Shell:

• Constructed from Super Fiber and other special synthetic fibers developed for F-1 helmet visor panels
• Assembled and bonded by Arai experts
• Specially-developed resin creates stronger bonds between shell materials with less weight
• Shell has superb tensile strength due to a variety of carefully-positioned materials and light weight resin

VAS Shield System:

• VAS (Variable Axis System) face shield and side pods are exclusive to the Arai Corsair X Helmet
• Variable axis (moving pivot point) allows shield mount position to be lower than most helmets
• Dual function lever releases both the side pod and the face shield for quick and simple face shield removal
