POC Receptor BUG Helmet
Think of POC as the little Swedish company that could…and is. POC protects gravity sports athletes worldwide with its technically advanced body armor. POC’s philosophy is that with a roster of talent like the POC team setting world records and winning World Championships, Olympic Golds, and X-games Golds, what better way to salute such talent than by protecting riders everywhere from preventable injuries. POC draws from the expertise of everyone from engineers and neurologists to pro-riders themselves. POC body armor features Visco-Elastic Polymer Dough, a revolutionary pliable compound which stiffens upon impact and consequently absorbs the majority of the shock. The innovative VPD not only meets industry safety standards, it exceeds the required CE-values by more than 50%. True to their acronym, POC makes safety a piece of cake.

Why Not Wear the Best?   02-06-09
Tyson Bolduc (26): rating
POC's helmets are relatively new to the market and have been designed with the utmost care and technology to fit the times. POC helmets feature the highest crash ratings on the market, as well as newly designed materials and ventilation systems. I have worn a lot of helmets in the past, but the POC helmet is comfortable and feels right. When it comes to a helmet, safety is key, but comfort is tantamount to your willingness to wear it. POC has integrated both these features (Comfort and Safety )and in the process made what in my opinion are the best helmets on the market.

Awesome lid!   02-11-09

Used this helmet for most of the season (my RED theory helmet exploded on a small impact, no bueno) and I love it! Very comfy fit, excellent quality, top notch design, style, function. I will definitely purchase another when this one wears out.

POC Receptor Bug Helmet   01-09-09
Chris Tatsuno (14): rating
I've been rockin' this helmet everyday I have skied this season. I usually try to split my time between just a beanie on mellow days and helmets for comp days, but with the Receptor, I have boosted my confidence on an everyday basis. I know that if I take a spill, there is a ton of design influence that is going to keep my brain in place. I have mine in white, ya know, just to keep it classy. And with a little velcro on top, I can easily rock my VIO POV.1 helmet cam without any swing-weight problems. One note of importance: I especially like the ventilation system on this helmet. Instead of a little tab on the outer shell that slides back and forth, and will most likely snap off in cold temps, this helmet has a sweet liner attachment that just plugs the holes on cold days. And it's light enough and small enough to keep in my jacket pocket on warm days. Sweet! Check ChrisTatsuno.com for some helmet cam skiing adventures!

Awesome Helmet!   05-07-09
mgbtivoli442345680 (0): rating
This helmet is awesome for all sorts of activities! I actually use it sailing because I got a terrible concussion from the boom and want to protect my head from future injury. I can use this helmet in the cold weather with the ear flaps, but can also use it in the warm weather by taking out the vents and taking off the ear flaps. It is great for both warm and cold weather and is very comfortable. It also has a low profile so it looks good on anyone's head!

Great helmet   01-07-09
Howie (1): rating
Used this helmet all days this season. Got mine in orange, wich is cool as hell. The actual color im much brighter orange in real life. I have a rather big head, so i got the XL. Fits perfectly. The helmet is pretty lightweight, has great ventilation (Turn your head sideways while skiing it sounds like a plane is flying right above you). 5 stars easily.
