NOCSAE Certification Testing of the GelCool gel pack in the Riddell Revolution™ and Riddell VSR-4™ helmets is complete with the official finding "compliant as tested". 

The Riddell Revolution™ helmet with the GelCool Systems gel pack passed NOCSAE directed drop testing performed by NOCSAE's certified testing group, Southern Impact Research Center (SIRC).

There were no tests in which the use of the gel pack in the helmet caused the  helmet to perform materially worse.  In some tests, the helmet actually performed better with the gel pack in place than it performed with no gel pack at all.

GelCool Systems is prepared to release our testing data to any party that wishes to review it.  Our data includes the results of a multitude of drop and rotational impact tests performed in a highly controlled, scientific lab which is approved by the major helmet manufacturers.  The rotational tests struck the helmet from many different angles at very high velocity (hundreds of G's).  The GelCool gel pack did not have a material adverse affect on the helmet performance in any of the tests.   The NOCSAE prescribed drop testing was performed using various drop heights and g-forces.  The helmet also passed these tests with the GelCool gel pack in place, in fact slightly improving the helmet's performance.

 

SIRC is a leader in its field and comprises a group of very experienced scientists who are themselves leaders in the science of helmet safety.  For more information about SIRC please visit http://www.soimpact.com
