Shark Skwal

Shark has introduced the first helmet with integrated LED technology, taking passive safety to a new level. The Shark Skwal replaces the popular S900 line and represents a giant leap forward in rider comfort and safety. It is clear that great thought went into incorporating the LED technology. The LED lights are mounted flush with the helmet surface and the amperage draw is so low they won’t need recharging very often. The lights are located on the front and back of the helmet and are easily activated with the left hand. The back lights can be also be seen from the side. Whether on the steady glow or flashing setting, these LED lights announce your presence to the traffic around you.

Product Information

Made out of injected thermoplastic Shark’s Skwal helmet weighs in at around 1450 grams. This is still very light for a helmet with built-in LED lighting in combination with an integrated sun-visor. Strips of yellow/green or white LED lighting on the front and back of the helmet make you light up in the dark, a useful addition since we all know that riders can be hard to spot in the dark. The aerodynamic design of the Shark Skwal helmet features scoops in the back with grooves at the bottom. These grooves stop the turbulence that causes your head to be a battered about when riding at top speeds. French helmet manufacturer Shark padded it’s Skwal helmet with a completely removable and washable anti-bacterial liner. Shark’s Easy Fit system ensures a perfect fit even for those wearing glasses. Those of you who have had water leaking into their helmet from under their visor know how incredibly uncomfortable it is to ride with wet padding. Innovation leader Shark has found a solution to this problem however. Their all new “autoseal” visor mechanism makes up for a tight seal between the visor and the helmet, preventing water from dripping into it. Speaking of the visor, Shark has gone a long way to ensure maximum wearing comfort. Right out of the box this Skwal helmet comes with a anti-scratch and anti-fog visor. But why deliver a design with one visor when you can go for two? Shark integrated a built-in retractable sun-visor in the design of its Skwal helmet, making wearing sun-glasses while riding a thing of the past. Shark even managed to build in space for its own Bluetooth communication system in the liner of the Skwal effectively making the helmet Sharktooth ready. This ECE 22.05 approved helmet is held onto your head through a Micro Lock buckle.

faq

How do I measure my helmet size?

The circumference of your head provides a good guideline for the size you need for a helmet. Use a tape measure to measure the widest circumference of your head. For most people, this point is about an inch above your eyebrows, along the junction of your ear and over the lump on the back of your head. In the size chart you will find which size fits the circumference of your head in cm.

What are the different helmet fit

All heads are different and that is why manufacturers make different helmet shapes, this can be roughly categorized into three shapes: round, oval and round-oval.

  • Round: length and width of the head are almost the same;
  • Round-oval: the length of the head is slightly greater than the width;
  • Oval: the length of the head is significantly greater than the width.

Most motorcycle helmet manufacturers provide a predominantly round-oval fit so that they can appeal to the widest possible audience. Keep in mind that the fit of a helmet is very complex and difficult to describe exactly. Small differences may therefore also be possible within these three categories!

Are sizes the same for all brands?

In general, the helmet sizes and the corresponding number of cm do overlap. If your previous old AGV was size L, chances are you also need an L for your new Nolan. But as mentioned before, there can be small differences in fit per brand and even series. That is why it can happen that the cool new helmet you've been eyeing, even when you have measured yourself well, simply wont fit well.

How do I make sure the helmet I received actually is the right fit for me.

You can check the size and fit in the following ways:

  • Keep the helmet still and then try to tilt your head back into the helmet. If the helmet is too large (in the longitudinal direction), you will hit the inner shell with your nose without too much effort. Sliding a little bit is allowed, but this should only happen with the necessary resistance.
  • Keep the helmet still and turn your head from left to right. Again, a little sliding is allowed, but with resistance. If the helmet comes off the face completely at the temples, the helmet is too big.

A good "tight" fit is what you are looking for, after all, you don't want your helmet to suddenly start shifting while riding. If you think the helmet is too small, keep in mind that the inner lining hase to be worn in a bit, and the helmet will become a bit wider when used. The cheek pads in particular usually feel quite tight in the beginning but quickly become more comfortable. The best way to determine whether a helmet has a good tight fit or simply is to small, is to keep the helmet on at home for half an hour to an hour. If you don't start to suffer from a headache or get red pressure spots, Then it's all good!

Is an ECE approved motorcycle helmet allowed in my country?

The ECE (22.05 / 22.06) standard is recognized in many countries around the world, but not all countries accept this standard for road use. It is important that your specific helmet has the correct certification for the country you are in.

  • A helmet with an ECE mark is only legal for use in Europe. In Europe it is even mandatory to ride with an ECE approved helmet. If your helmet has a different quality mark, you are not allowed to use it on European roads.
  • The United States has its own certification for helmets, namely the DOT mark. This is therefore the only quality mark that is allowed in the USA. It is possible that a helmet is both ECE and DOT approved and is therefore legal for use in both Europe and the United States.

The USA does not require helmets in every state. If you still want to wear a helmet for safety reasons, then there can in any case be no discussion about the certification of the helmet. Want to know which rules apply per state? You read it here.

Although the above quality marks are well known and widely used, there are also countries that use their own unique quality marks and only accept these. The following countries have their own certification: USA (DOT), Brazil (NBR), Japan (JIS), China (CCC).
