The Dainese-owned helmet brand AGV has developed its top-of-the-line motocross helmet in collaboration with motorsport champs such as David Philippaerts, Deny Philippaerts, Gautier Paulin, Dawid Ciucci, Davide Gozzini, Maurizio Magherini, Andrea Cervellin, Travis Pastrana and Davi Millsaps. Now, the company has launched a special edition of the AX-8, dedicated to Pastrana,and the Nitro Circus freestyle crew.

"The asymmetry in the paint design, between the left and the right side, represent Travis's constant movement and creativity in sports, his strong inability to sit still. The lightning bolt on the right side of the helmet is Travis's salute to a motocross legend who inspired a wide open riding style and always get back up mentality,"
AGV says.

The AX-8 is available in 3 outer shell sizes with sizes that run from XXS to XXL. The design combines the front air vents and the rear extractors that recall both those in the on-road and MT-X versions.

The integrated IVS ventilation system consists of channels formed directly in the outer shell, while the internal padding in breathable Dri-Lex material has been provided with sanitizing treatment and is completely removable and washable, including the flap on the strap,

In addition, the visor area features soft covers in plastic, which unlike fabric does not absorb moisture and can be easily washed with a sponge or a brush. The internal padding in the visor opening area has been studied for a perfect fit even when wearing motocross goggles.

The chin vents can be easily removed without tools and are sized for both ideal airflow and complete chin protection. The peak, with its outer screws in aluminium is easily adjustable thanks to the central plastic screw beneath it. The fastening system vaunts DD closing with a double ring.
