HELMET MANUAL
Thank you. You have chosen a TSG safety product designed especially for
snowboarders and skiers. All TSG helmets are developed with the input of
our professional athletes. Correctly used and cared for, they will keep you
better protected and reassured for many years to come.
APPLICATIONS
TSG snow helmets are designed for all the various forms of snowboarding
and alpine skiing. All TSG helmets fully comply with international safety
regulations.

SAFETY STANDARDS

TSG helmets fulfill the requirements and safety regulations stipulated in
EU directive 89/686/EEC. If your helmet bears a CE designation, it meets
the essential safety requirements of EN 1077, class A or B. Class A and
B helmets are for alpine skiers, snowboarders and similar groups. Class
A helmets offer comparatively more protection. Class B helmets may offer
greater ventilation and better hearing, but protect a smaller area of the head
and give a lesser degree of protection from penetration. If your helmet bears
an ASTM designation, it meets the essential safety requirements of F2040.
There must be a clearly visible marking on every approved helmet and this
may not be removed. All TSG helmet models are tested and homologated by
Critt Sport Loisirs, Zone du Sanital, 86100 Chatellerault, France, NB n°0501
and by an accredited testing laboratory in the USA.
WARNING
For use in non-motorized recreational snow sports such as snowboarding,
skiing and other alpine sports only. This helmet should not be used by children
while climbing or doing other activities when there is a risk of strangulation/
hanging if the child gets trapped with the helmet. It is important that the helmet
fits your head properly and that it is correctly buckled. While no helmet can
prevent all head injuries, use of a helmet, taking lessons, riding responsibly
and within your abilities, and common sense, can together significantly
reduce the risk of catastrophic head injury and death. However, accidents,
serious injuries or death can occur even if the helmet is properly used.
TSG makes no claim that this helmet will eliminate all possibilities of injury.
This helmet is designed to absorb shock by partial destruction of the energy
absorbing liner. This damage may not be visible to the user. Therefore, if
subjected to a severe impact or blow, the helmet should be destroyed and
replaced even if it appears undamaged. A helmet can only provide a level
of protection for areas that it covers. It does not protect your neck. Do not
