Intro

Like all the products in Dynafit’s DNA lineup, this stripped-down design is built for speed, for those looking to shave the seconds. 330 g for a triple-certified helmet, perfect for home-to-mountain missions, perhaps even starting from home by bike. Padding is basic, mountaineering/climbing style, but comfort and stability are good. Polycarbonate and EPS structure—like many of its competitors. Ventilation is ok, closure is secure but not lightning-fast.
