1. Petzl Meteor
The lightweight, compact Meteor helmet from Petzl, designed for climbing, mountaineering, and ski touring, features excellent ventilation and provides great comfort in both summer and winter. Its head-hugging design ensures enhanced protection across the entire head area, even against lateral impacts and blows. The In-Mold construction of the Meteor is responsible for optimal all-around protection. The outer shell made of thin polycarbonate prevents the penetration of sharp objects during rockfall, simultaneously protecting the inner shell made of injected EPS foam. The thick inner shell absorbs impact energy from objects or falls through deformation, distributing it in such a way that pressure does not act pointwise on the head. Thanks to this design, the Meteor is extremely versatile for mountain sports and even carries the CE mark for ski touring helmets. Specifically for this purpose, it can be combined with ski goggles or a visor. Please note that the Meteor does not meet the requirements of the helmet standard EN 1077 for alpine skiers!.

The in-mould construction of the Meteora is responsible for the optimum all-round protection. The outer shell made of thin polycarbonate prevents sharp objects from penetrating in the event of a rockfall and at the same time protects the inner shell made of injection-moulded EPS foam. The thick inner shell absorbs the impact energy of objects or falls through deformation and distributes it so that the pressure cannot affect the head at certain points. Thanks to this design, the Meteora can be used with absolute flexibility in mountain sports and can even boast CE labelling for ski touring helmets.
