The POC Fornix BC brings technology to your safety game with a medical ID chip that stores your digital profile. In the event of an accident, first responders or other skiers can easily access critical information by simply tapping their smartphone on the shell. In an effort to reduce the need for that information, the helmet is also equipped with MIPS to protect you from harmful rotational forces in the case of an angled impact. In addition to safety, the Fornix BC provides comfort through an adjustable ventilation dial and a secure fit with a 360-degree adjustment system.
