Shaped for the longest adventures deep into the mountains, the Fornix BC is built for durability while providing comfort and flexibility that works in all conditions.

Integrated technologies work to keep you protected before, during and after an accident: A RECCO® Avalanche Rescue Reflector helps rescue services more quickly locate you if something goes wrong. An NFC Medical ID from Twiceme® enables the helmet to speak for you when you can't: your medical profile can be stored on a chip within the helmet that can be read by any first responder simply by tapping their device on the helmet.

A refined interior enhances comfort on long days in the mountains: thick, soft padding gives a cushioned feel at the contact points between the helmet and head. The helmet's 360° fit system and cradle adjuster make finding the right fit even easier, while an updated design on the earpads and strap adjuster supports comfort and flexibility.

You can also easily control helmet ventilation for optimum comfort across a range of weather conditions.

The helmet features Mips to support improved rotational impact protection, and bridges of aramid moulded to the helmet liner enhances penetration protection.

Goggle chimneys align perfectly with the top of POC goggles to allow heat to escape and prevent fogging, while the goggle clip to the rear keeps your eyewear firmly attached and secure.

The Fornix BC is the backcountry-specific version of the Fornix series, built with extra rescue and touring features that the resort-focused Fornix Mips doesn't have.

  • Fornix BC includes a RECCO® Avalanche Rescue Reflector and a Twiceme® NFC Medical ID chip, both aimed at backcountry and ski touring safety

  • Both helmets include Mips for improved rotational impact protection

  • Fornix BC's shell and liner are tuned for longer days of ski touring and durability in variable mountain conditions, while Fornix Mips is built for all-mountain resort skiing

  • See the Fornix Mips Ski Helmet for the resort-oriented alternative

The Twiceme® NFC Medical ID lets a first responder or ski touring partner access your medical profile instantly by tapping a smartphone on the helmet, even if you're unconscious or unable to communicate.

  • Medical information is stored on a chip built into the helmet shell, not on an app you need to remember to open

  • Readable by any NFC-enabled smartphone, no signal or cell service required

  • Designed specifically for remote backcountry skiing and ski touring situations where help may be delayed

  • You can control what medical details are stored and shared

A RECCO® Avalanche Rescue Reflector is a passive chip built into the helmet that lets organized rescue teams locate you faster in the backcountry using a RECCO detector.

  • Requires no battery or activation, it works automatically whenever you're wearing the helmet

  • Detected by RECCO helicopter and ground search systems used by rescue organizations in backcountry and ski touring terrain

  • Complements, but doesn't replace, an avalanche transceiver, shovel, and probe for backcountry travel

  • Helps rescuers pinpoint your location faster after an avalanche or backcountry accident

POC's BC ski helmets are developed for backcountry skiers, ski tourers, and splitboarders who spend long days earning their turns in the mountains, away from resort infrastructure.

  • Built for durability and comfort across variable weather and longer uphill efforts
  • Adjustable ventilation helps manage temperature changes between the skin track and the descent
  • Integrated RECCO® reflector and Twiceme® Medical ID address the specific rescue needs of off-piste and backcountry terrain
  • 360° fit system and cradle adjuster support an all-day comfortable fit
  • A natural pairing for skiers already using backcountry-specific touring gear
