Stylish. Safe. Modular. Tech-Integrated
You strap it on, and suddenly you’re more than just a rider carving through fresh powder. The RG2 Deadpool doesn’t merely protect your head; it transforms it into a statement. This isn’t just gear—it’s a character, an extension of you. Crimson and black slash across its surface like it’s been in a brawl and came out grinning. Battle scars, silver foil katanas, irreverent doodles—it’s Deadpool’s smirk turned into armor, irreverent and unapologetic.
But don’t let the attitude fool you; this helmet is no slouch when it comes to tech. The modular design takes versatility to a new level, letting you snap between full-face or open-face configurations with the kind of ease you need on the mountain. The Magnetic Mask System works seamlessly, even with gloved hands, while the goggles slide into place like they were born there. Every component, every detail, feels tailored to keep you focused on your ride, not your gear.
Safety isn’t just a feature here—it’s a philosophy. With Rheon tech reducing both rotational and linear impact forces, this helmet takes the hit so your brain doesn’t have to. And then there’s the twICEme NFC chip, a subtle but critical piece of innovation that stores vital medical info for emergency responders. It’s a quiet nod to the unpredictable nature of the ride—calm preparation for when things don’t go to plan.
Of course, connectivity comes standard. The integrated Cardo Dynamic Mesh system lets you link up with up to 15 riders, stream your favorite playlist, or take a call without breaking rhythm. It’s tech that blends into the background, letting you stay fully present on the slopes. The lightweight shell and 360º Fit System ensure it stays comfortable, no matter how long you push it. And with that patented RAID airflow system, you’ll stay cool under pressure, your goggles fog-free as you charge through every run.
This isn’t just a helmet—it’s a personality. It’s for the ones who ride to escape, to connect, to find themselves out there in the snow. The ones who need gear that does more than keep up—it needs to lead. With the RG2 Deadpool, you’re not just protected; you’re empowered. And maybe, just maybe, you’re having more fun than anyone else on the mountain.
