The name Gems refers to a precious stone. The ALPINA GEMS is our freeride jewel: unique, lightweight and valuable – a gem for the head. A particularly striking feature of the GEMS is the scattered hole pattern structure that allows for ventilation across the entire surface. This feature will come in handy for every freerider during a sweaty climb or in sunny mountain weather. Naturally the active venting can also be operated with gloves on. For extra protection in the backcountry, the helmet has a low cover around the back of the head and a hybrid shell structure, which also distributes the forces exerted by objects striking the helmet.
