ACA helmet rule

It was requested of us to look into the ACA helmet rule for non FIS races. After internal discussion and discussion with the CSA with respect to insurance, we must inform you that ACA’s stance on this is that helmet use for all non FIS events must conform with FIS standards. FIS RULE: New & Addition: Art. 707, 807, 907, 1007 - Crash helmets All competitors and forerunners are obliged to wear a crash helmet that conforms to the competition equipment specification. Helmets used in FIS Snowsports shall be specifically designed and manufactured for the respective discipline and shall bear a CE mark and conform to recognized and appropriate standards such as CEEH. Din 1077 or US 2040, ASTM F2040, SNELL S98 or RS98, etc.
This will be stated on our website under our equipment rules: www.canski.org/webconcepteur/web/alpine/en/programs/nav/generalinfo.htm
