POC Receptor Helmet

The POC Receptor Helmet passes certifications for snow sports, biking, skateboarding, and kayaking, so you no longer need a closet full of brain buckets. This meticulously engineered, skateboarding-inspired helmet withstands multiple smaller impacts, and it crushes to absorb the force of a catastrophic crash. Top vents help you stay cool in the summer and removable plugs close them off for winter use. POC also developed a special liner that helps the Receptor Helmet provide warmth for snow sports without absorbing water when you take it on the river in the spring.

Bottom Line: The POC Receptor Helmet keeps your dome safe through summer and winter.

"Will it work on the moon", you say ? Well, I'm not planning on the moon anytime soon but does it meet SNELL or ASTM criteria and what does POC stand for ? Is it Svensk ?
Can you give me the weights of the various POC models ?
Thanks, Victoria
