MOTO

2015

THE NEXT LEVEL 6D™ is the helmet of choice of AMA professional motocross racer Eli Tomac and the entire GEICO Honda 250 team along with thousands of amateur racers from around the world. Named ‘Product of the Year’ by three major off-road publications in 2013 for its ground-breaking contributions to helmet design and safety, the 6D ATR-1 truly is ‘The Next Level’. 6D’s innovative Omni-Directional Suspension™ (ODS™) technology is the key to what sets the 6D apart from any other helmet or helmet technology available. ODS reduces energy transfer to the brain by means of the 3-dimensional displacement capability of its suspended inner liner. Basically, it’s ‘Suspension for Your Head’! We encourage you to explore the benefits of ODS and how it compares to traditional helmet designs as well as the emerging technologies from other manufacturers. 6D’s ODS is the only technology providing significant reductions in angular acceleration energy while simultaneously reducing low-threshold energy transfer to the brain. Welcome to ‘The Next Level’.

ODS TECHNOLOGY - EXCLUSIVE IN 6D 6D’s revolutionary patent pending Omni-Directional Suspension (ODS) embodies a fully active, in-helmet suspension and kinetic energy management system. The goal was simple; design a helmet that reduces energy transfer to the brain over a much broader range of energy demands, including LOW, MID and HIGH-VELOCITY impacts for both linear and angular accelerations.

6D’s suspended multi-liner assembly will compress and shear omni-directionally when subjected to impact. This capability provides significantly improved time managment performance against both linear and angular acceleration energy demands. There is simply no other helmet technology that can provide these combined energy management benefits.

ELASTOMERIC ISOLATION DAMPER This miniaturized damper is the heart and soul of 6D’s exclusive ODS technology. An array of 27 dampers work in unison to isolate impact energy from your brain. The elastic properties of the dampers, combined with their unique ‘hourglass’ shape provide a progressive spring rate that manages low and mid-threshold accelerations, while simultaneously allowing the inner EPS liner to shear in 3-dimensional space within itself. This omni-directional suspension capability provides ‘six degrees of freedom’, which became the inspiration for our company name; ‘6D.’

INDEPENDENT LABORATORY TESTING

6D ODS TECHNOLOGY

The exceptional test results in this catalog are the actual test data generated from hours of testing the 6D ATR-1 helmet against current model SNELL, ECE and DOT certified helmets in a fully-independent, third-party laboratory testing facility; Dynamic Research, located in Torrance, California. Dynamic Research is recognized as a leader in helmet testing and evaluation, and is a pioneer in measuring and evaluating angular acceleration energy. This testing confirms that ODS significantly reduces energy transferred to the head form during impact. This reduction may reduce the likelihood of a concussion or brain injury over a traditional helmet design. The 6D ATR-1 is certified to exceed US DOT FMVSS 218 (United States), ECE 22.05 (47 Countries World-Wide), AS 1698 (Australia) and ACU (United Kingdom).

TIME

Time to peak (TTP) is the measurement of time (in milliseconds) it takes the energy of an impact to reach the maximum (peak) G force. Deceleration time is the single most beneficial component of reducing the severity and magnitude of any impact. The more time, the less severe the energy transfer will become. 6D’s proprietary ODS technology buys time, in fact more than doubles the TTP in most impacts below 6 m/sec! The really cool news here is the significant reduction in energy transfer that comes simply with time. The graph* on the opposite page reflects the ‘Time to Peak’ acceleration of competitive helmets in the category. The 6D ATR-1 provides more than double the time compared to the average of the set, and 2.5 times more time than the worst performer. It’s all about time. *Tme To Peak (TTP) Accelerations during incline anvil testing at 3m/sec, Front.

The Competition

LOW-THRESHOLD ENERGY (LOW-VELOCITY IMPACTS) Recent medical research has provided alarming conclusions surrounding the causes, severity, and long-term effects of concussions. We now know that even seemingly minor concussions (‘I’m fine, I just rang my bell’) may have much more serious effects on the long-term health and well-being of one’s brain. It’s well documented that concussions can occur from impacts in the lower range of 60 G’s** in adult males and may be location dependent. This value is even less in women and children.

Linear Acceleration (G’s)

To meet high certification test velocities, conventional helmets are simply too stiff to effectively absorb energy from impacts at lower impact velocities. The vast majority of impacts in ‘real world’ crashes are what we qualify as ‘low-threshold energy’ impacts well below the pass/fail certification velocities, but at or above the velocity necessary to sustain a concussion or brain injury. In this critical area of energy management the 6D helmet pays huge benefits when compared to HIGH-VELOCITY traditional helmet designs. 6D’s proprietary ODS starts 120 working the instant any force is applied to the shell, 6 m/sec* making the helmet much more compliant and progressive on the highest percentage of 80 ‘real world’ crash impacts.

Angular Acceleration (rad/s/s)

Angular acceleration is defined as the rate of change of angular velocity over time. Angular acceleration energy is 6D The Competition 12000 generated from oblique angle impacts to the helmet surface and is particularly concerning to one’s health and long-term well-being. The medical community agrees that angular 8000 acceleration energy is a primary cause of concussion, mildtraumatic brain injury (MTBI), and traumatic brain injury (TBI). These types of injuries occur from oblique impacts to the 4000 helmet and are serious. The result of this type of impact, and subsequent energy transfer there from, is shearing, tearing, compression, and rotations of the brain within the skull. Experiments conducted by David C. Viano, PhD. M.D. at the Bioengineering Center at Wayne State University confirmed that a helmeted head sustained the same degree of angular acceleration as the un-helmeted head when subjected to identical impacts. So, if angular acceleration is a major cause of concussion (or worse), how is the brain protected by traditional helmet design? Unfortunately, in respect to angular acceleration energy, it is not. The graphs shown here identify how 6D’s proprietary ODS technology dramatically reduces the transfer of angular acceleration energy to the head form, resulting in less likelihood of concussion or brain injury.

The challenge - traditional liners are made up of an outer foam-backed fabric, over a dense foam padding. While comfortable, it all but eliminates air flow and absorbs and retains both moisture and heat. The solution - the 6D Super Cool™ liner system is a unique perforated outer fabric, (not foam backed), combined with an exclusive open-cell 6D mesh material that completely replaces the dense comfort foam. The result is a dramatic increase in air flow. Moisture quickly evaporates and air can travel through with little restriction, allowing cool air in and heat to escape. When combined with the 6D Air-Gap, the performance is unequalled.
