Jorge Martín Almoguera, nicknamed the Martinator, is a Spanish Grand Prix motorcycle racer, who won the 2024 MotoGP World Championship with Prima Pramac Racing, becoming the first independent team rider to win the premier class title in the MotoGP era.
The Supertech R10 is the pinnacle of Alpinestars’ racing helmets. ECE 22.06 and FIM homologated, this top performing aerodynamic helmet has a 3K high density carbon shell with A-Head fitment system and the choice of two spoilers optimised for race and road use.
The result of over 10 years of intensive study, development and testing, the goal of the Supertech family of helmets is to create the most advanced, protective, and performance-enhancing helmets possible for racers and riders worldwide. The S-R10 Helmet has been engineered to provide the perfect blend of excellent ventilation, unsurpassed comfort and the lightest weight possible without compromising on any other front.
RRP: £1,149.99
Construction
- 4 Layer Outer Shell: 3K high density carbon outer layer provides excellent strength and efficiency of energy dissipation over the shell
- Uni-directional (UD) carbon composite layer provides significantly greater radial strength around the shell, preventing compression, but allowing controlled deflection for reducing transmitted impact energy
- Aramid fibre plus fibreglass layers provide critical penetration protection
- 4 Layer Inner Shell: S-R10’s inner shell is made from EPS in different densities
- Available in four shell sizes (XS-S, M, L, XL-XXL)
- Eight-piece multi-density EPS liner, ensures excellent energy absorption from impact forces dissipated over the outer shell, as well as a close and comfortable fit
- Smooth EPS inner surface creates an optimised, low friction area, for superior oblique impact management
Aerodynamics
- Optimised for low drag performance and maximum aerodynamic stability
- S-R10 comes with aerodynamic spoilers – standard and a longer race version
- Lateral winglets further support the S-R10’s stability and improve aerodynamic drag
- Helmet visor has turbulators to improve aero-acoustic performance
Protection
- Homologated to ECE 22.06, DOT and FIM certified Supertech R10 helmet
- A-Head Fitment System allows for an ultra-specific helmet position setup
- Optical Class 1 visor: 3mm thick, anti-scratch and anti-fog treatment coating
- Metal locking mechanism lever to prevent unwanted shield detachment during impacts and/or crashes
- Chin bar’s profile design reduces chance of any sort of collarbone injury
- Emergency Release System allows safe & easy removal of cheek pads while helmet is still on
Comfort & Visibility
- Ventilation: 11 ventilation ports, not including the eye port, 7 intakes including 3 in the chinguard and 4 on the top of the helmet, plus 4 exhausts, with 2 lateral ports on the chin bar, and 2 on the top rear of the helmet
- Lowered side line for a maximised field of view
- Outstanding wide eyeport provides 220° of lateral and 57° of vertical visibility for great riding comfort
- Visor is equipped with internal pins to accommodate a Pinlock® 120XLT 100% MaxVision™ lens and external pins to accommodate tear-offs
- Quick-release system for visor removal
- Linings are removable and washable, and feature fabrics with anti-microbial treatments
- Hydration hose ready
- Weight: 1,540 grams for a size medium, providing the S-R10 with an extremely high performance to protection to weight ratio
