ALPINESTARS S-M3 Jettson Youth Helmet

Anatomically engineered for younger riders, the all-new S-M3 Jettson Youth Helmet is Alpinestars’ most advanced off-road head protection for the next generation of racers. Featuring a thermo-injected shell with a patented visor release system and rotational impact protection, it exceeds ECE 22.06 standards for superior safety. This lightweight helmet delivers maximized ventilation and a customizable fit for ultimate track performance and comfort.

Key Features

• This lightweight SM3 Youth Helmet features a thermo-injected shell incorporating a special polymer blend enhanced by varying degrees of thickness that is engineered to deliver the optimal combination of impact protection and light weight.
• Lightweight outer shell is constructed from a technologically advanced impact resistant thermoplastic in three sizes (Youth Small, Youth Medium and Youth Large. The SM3 Youth weighs 1060g (ECE) and 1170g (DOT).
• Separate versions of the shells for DOT and ECE requirements; the DOT certified version of the helmet’s inner shell is constructed with a composite fiber assembled between the outer shell and the EPS liner for maximum protection against impacts.
• The fit can be tailored to the rider’s head thanks to the helmet’s crown and cheek pads, which are available as spare parts in different thicknesses.
• Youth Medium (YM) and Youth Large (YL) sizes share the same EPS size, which allows riders with an YM size to initially buy an YM helmet and then configure it to a Youth Large size as they grow via the crown and cheek pad spare parts.
• The Youth Small (YS) has a smaller EPS size and can be customized only via the cheek pads. Alpinestars extensive research has shown that the kids that wear a YS size are very small, typically 3 to 4 years old, and therefore they require a dedicated helmet fit.

Protection

• Based on Alpinestars’ experience and impact data collection, the shell thickness and the structure of the helmet design itself have both been optimized in the chin area for superior impact performance.
• Equipped with an Emergency Release System and removable cheek pads to permit the safe and easy removal of the cheek pads while the helmet is still on, while the 3D contoured foam ensures rider comfort.
• Stainless steel D-rings ensure a tight and secure fit.
• The SM3 Youth Helmet conforms to both DOT certification and ECE 2206 homologation for use worldwide.
