Description
The Simpson Vudo makes its return, completely re-engineered with an all-new, ultra-lightweight shell that establishes it as the lightest helmet in its segment. Purpose-built for the fearless, the Vudo’s "no-vent" aerodynamic profile is specifically designed for the high-velocity demands of open-cockpit racing and the high-debris conditions of dirt track environments.
Hand-built to order in New Braunfels, Texas, the Vudo delivers uncompromising protection and the iconic Simpson styling that drivers trust. Its streamlined design significantly reduces drag, providing a performance edge and a commanding presence on the track.

Safety Compliance & Maintenance
The Snell Foundation recommends replacing your racing helmet every five (5) years from the date of manufacture, as the protective resins and internal liners can diminish in performance over time. To maintain the Gloss Black finish, clean with mild soap and water using a soft microfiber cloth. Always verify the technical and safety rules of your specific sanctioning body before competition.
