The most impressive news is POC’s new Kortal Race MIPS helmet, which they describe as a helmet as capable and versatile as modern trail bikes-fantastic for both the up and the downs. POC also sent over their brand new and ridiculously flashy Devour sunglasses for me to check out, and although they’re a bit of a departure from my usual style and a little outside of this site’s typical coverage, I’ve included a quick look at them as well. I’ve been using the new standard Kortal Helmet, which has a very similar design, but without the new MIPS and medical ID chip tech. The new POC Kortal Race MIPS helmet is packed with impressive safety features, like a breakaway visor, an integrated medical ID chip, the new MIPS Integra slip liner, and a RECCO reflector to help in search and rescue scenarios.

When POC recently sent over the featherweight Ventral Lite helmet, they also included a new mountain bike helmet to replace my beloved Smith Session, which was on its last legs.
