KASK Helmets unstoppable athlete Tamara Donelson became the first ever Winter Teva Games Mountain Bike Criterium Champion this winter!
“With its short-lap format, success in a winter mountain-bike criterium requires cyclists to hold their own on a fast, snowy course that covers the lower portions of Vail Mountain. Wide tires will be the tool of choice for riders to navigate the varied terrain in this spectator-friendly, one-of-a-kind event.”

Mighty Magali Experiences KASK
One of KASK’s signed pro athletes Magali “Mighty Magali” Tisseyre recently took her new KASK helmets out for a test spin. Here’s what she had to say:
“I arrived in Santa Monica a week ago, so pumped to start training again. The first thing I saw when I looked up to the stairs of my apartment, were two huge boxes of the FINEST helmets in the world.” [...] “Of course, I couldn’t wait to give them all a test ride, I did my first ride this week with the Mojito helmet and absolutely LOVED it. It felt weightless and fit like a glove because like most of their helmets it is adjustable horizontally and vertically, so it –hugs- your skull as it adjusts to fit in the curve under your occipital bone.…+ it looked hot (you know that counts too!!).”

Lava Magazine reviews KASK Vertigo helmet
Gordon Yeager of Lava Magazine writes:
“…At first glance the [KASK Vertigo] looks similar to a lot of others in this price range. Loads of air vents, pretty lightweight, lots of colors … but where it truly crushes the competition is in the details. The chin strap is wrapped in leather, the ear straps have reflective ribbing, the brace at the back has gel inserts to cushion your head. The decals are clean and not covering every inch of the helmet like so many other companies. I dig the Kask logo too.”
[...]
“Would I buy a $300 helmet? Yep. Do I need that helmet for the sporadic type of riding I do? Maybe. I suggest when you walk into the bike shop looking for a new helmet, you’re actually deciding on what’s important to you besides safety. They are all safe and tested. You have to love a company that names a color “Mojito” (above left). Yum. I really like my Vertigo. Wait, why is the room spinning? It’s the Mojito, nevermind.
I can’t wait to get more miles in this helmet, and I’m positive you’ll start seeing them rolling down your local roads and rides.”
