Product Overview

Youth football comes with different challenges and the VICIS Zero2 Youth Football Helmet was designed to address some of them. This version of VICIS' popular adult helmet comes with tweaks in the impact aborption that are finely tuned to the lower impacts of the youth game. The difference comes in the RFLX 2.0 system, buckling columns that help absorb impacts. In the Zero2 Youth, the columns are designed for velocities seen at the youth level and the same performance is delivered at a lower weight. The RFLX 2.0 layer is tucked between the same deformable outer shell and reinforced inner shell seen in the adult Zero2 that work together to provide a great fit with the best impact absorption in the game. The Youth Zero2 also emplys the same fit system with DLTA pods that snap in and out of six locations in the helmet and help you configure it to your head shape without an inflation bladder. For even better performance, the compatible facemasks feature optimized vertical and horizontal sightlines for maximum situational awareness.

Features

  • Five-layer protection to mitigate impacts that occur during football
  • Deformable outer shell exclusive to VICIS helmets that deforms like a car bumper to absorb impact
  • VICIS RFLX 2.0 is the array of connected columns inside the shell that further breaks down the impacts, finely tuned for the impacts in the youth game
  • Reinforced inner shell engineered through data collected from hundreds of head shapes for accomdating fit
  • DLTA Fit Sytem
  • Each DLTA pod allows for impact protection on the RFLX side and a comfortable fit against your head
  • Fully interchangeable to various thicknesses
  • 6 locations on the inside of the helmet
  • Form Liner, located under the DLTA pods, gives you a locked in feel on the side and occipital regions and can be removed for a larger fit range
  • Includes installed DLTA pods (see size chart for pad sizing)
  • Industry leading horizontal and vertical field of vision
  • Standard VICIS hard mount facemask attachment
  • Includes black soft cup chinstrap
  • One tubular stainless steel facemask of choice included

Great Helmet - For kids over 120 pounds
By Kevin
from Jackson, MO
on January 3, 2024
Please read: This helmet is without question the safest helmet (statistically speaking) - but it is not for everyone. This is a VERY heavy helmet - I would only recommend this helmet for kids weighing over 120 pounds. I weighed this (size large) - and it came in at 4.53 pounds (mask and visor included).

I advise everyone to do the math on this! Let’s assume a kid weighs 80 pounds. if he wears a 4.53 pound helmet; that helmet is equal to 5.66% of his entire body weight…. Now for perspective; compare that to a fully grown 190 pound man, 5.66% would be the equivalent of the grown man wearing a 10.75 pound helmet. —(this makes the helmet almost impossible to wear)

- it remains true for the child at 80 pounds. - impossible to wear, - and impossible to perform at a high level

My son, is currently 100 pounds going into 6th grade, I like the helmet, but we will simply put this on the shelf until his neck muscles are strong enough to support that type weight (perhaps Jr High)

In the meantime, he’ll continue to wear his LIGHT LS2 composite helmet that weighs just 3.06 pounds (mask and visor included)

Do the same math on the LS2: 80 pound kid: =3.82% of total body weight. For the 190 pound grown man, that equates to wearing a 7.25 pound helmet.
7.25 pounds vs 10.75 pounds - which helmet would dad want to wear?
Pros
  • Great build quality
  • Great looks
  • Great visibility (with the mask we chose - skill position)
  • The highest rated helmet from VT
Cons
  • VERY heavy -Just as heavy as the Zero One
  • Youth Large - with mask and visor weighed in at 4.53 pounds
  • This helmet would greatly hinder the mobility and performance in younger/lighter players
Found the safest rated helmet for a reasonable price!

Only had this helmet for a few days, but my son is already loving it. It's very comfortable for him and you can tell it's well made.
