WARNING
This helmet provides LIMITED protection for the head and does not offer any protection against neck, spinal, or certain
types of brain injuries including those caused by rotational forces. Some hazards can exceed this helmet’s specified
ability to provide protection and could cause serious injuries or death. This helmet is made to absorb the energy of a
blow by partial destruction or damage to the shell, liner and the harness, and even though such damage may not be
readily apparent, any helmet subjected to severe impact should be replaced. This helmet is designed to help protect
from bumps, scratches, and concussion. This helmet is not intended for use in white water classes 5 and 6 as given by
the International Canoe Federation. For adequate protection this helmet must be fit and adjusted properly to the user.
Inspect the helmet before each use. Make sure the shell components are not damaged, cracked, deformed, loose or
showing signs of excessive wear. Do not remove or alter the front, top, side or back impact pads or modify any or the
original component parts of the helmet, other than as recommended by the helmet manufacturer. Replacing the ½”
thick impact pads with the supplied Ops-Core ¾” impact pads will not adversely affect impact performance. However,
by removing the pads completely or repositioning them, impact attenuation performance could be adversely affected.
Helmets should not be adapted for the purpose of fitting attachments in any way not recommended by the helmet
manufacturer. Do not apply paint, solvents, adhesives, or self-adhesive labels except in accordance with instructions
from the manufacturer as they could degrade helmet integrity and resulting performance. Clean shell with soap and
lukewarm water. Internal comfort pads may be hand washed and air dried.
