Edelrid Salathe Lite

The SALATHE LITE is almost another 20% lighter than its big brother! We have achieved this weight reduction by replacing the classic ABS shell with Curv, the latest generation of an extremely high performance, thermoplastic material. It has similar properties to fiber-reinforced composites like carbon: good rigidity, high tensile strength, and exceptional impact resistance—all with a very low weight.

Features:

• Fully adjustable chin strap with closure system under the ear for greater comfort
• Ultra-light EPP core (expanded polypropylene) for outstanding shock absorption and high dimensional stability
• Easily adjustable harness straps for a secure fit, minimal pack size, and excellent ventilation
• Headlamp attachment with two clips at the front and an elastic strap at the back
• Large vents ensure a constant supply of fresh air and heat dissipation
• The helmet shape is specially designed for use with ski goggles
• CE-certified as a ski touring helmet in accordance with PCSR-002 11.2019 (note: does not meet the requirements of the EN 1077 standard for ski helmets)
• Ergonomically-shaped interior with removable, washable padding
• Side/front/back impact tested according to EN 12492
• Robust hard shell made from innovative, ultra-light Curv material in the upper and front areas for additional protection e.g. in the event of rockfall
