The result: The Riddell SpeedFlex. Backed by extensive research, including our 2+ million data points of on-field impacts, the SpeedFlex introduces many technical features that are new to the field. Flexibility engineered into the helmet's shell, face mask and face mask attachment system with hinge clips reduces the impact force transfer to the athlete.

A ratchet-style chin strap attachment system designed for easy, efficient adjustments and offers a new way to help secure proper fit. Four-point face mask attachment that disengages with a simple press of a button. Research-based mandible protection helps reduce the forces from side impacts.

Technology feature consists of side shell extensions combined with side liner extensions. Flexible liner, designed to conform to various head shapes, providing comfort and helmet stability. Removable padding system designed for ease-of-use when switching pads.

Inflatable liner that, when inflated, cradles the athlete's occipital lobe, improving the helmet's security and fit. Interior liner that conforms to the shape of a player's head as well as fits the contours of the helmet shell (front pad, crown, back/ side, occipital lock, face frames) for improved comfort and fit.
