Bringing a little Brazilian Magic to the Shark Skwal Cup
Launched last year, the Shark SKWAL CUP, which takes inspiration from the track-focused Aeron GP lid, is now available in the Eric Granado Replica graphic option.
Honouring the Brazilian racing legend, who is six time Brazilian Superbike Champion and internationally acclaimed in both MotoE and currently competes in the Harley-Davidson World Bagger Series. Designed with a strong Brazilian emphasis, the lid is emblazoned in the eye-catching and colourful flag of the nation. Along with Eric’s number 51 racing decal.
Constructed from polycarbonate, the shell of the SKWAL CUP has been designed using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) ,which analyses airflow. This has resulted in the lid having a rear spoiler or SHARK FIN to reduce drag, improve air penetration and increase stability at higher speeds. Front air intakes and two rear extraction fans, ensure optimal airflow and rider comfort, whatever the weather.
Perfect for year-round riding, the SKWAL CUP features the same high-definition Optical Class 1 visor as the AERON GP, this gives clear, undistorted vision and has an anti-scratch coating.
There are also the benefits of an internal drop-down sun visor, an adjustable visor closure mechanism to aid airflow on warmer rides and a Pinlock anti mist visor insert is included. All of which enhances the rider’s experience and enables them to concentrate on the road (or track) ahead.
The racing DNA of the SKWAL CUP is amplified with the double-D ring closure, favoured by all top racers because it offers maximum security, is light and easily adjustable. The SKWAL CUP has been designed to accommodate a SENA for SHARK communication systems, in either Bluetooth or Mesh formats, these can be purchased separately.
Comfort is a top priority, so the interior of the helmet includes the ALVEOTECH SANITIZED® suede lining, soft touch, non-abrasive and has antibacterial properties. This ensures the rider is kept clean and the Easy Fit System provides a comfortable fit for glasses wearers. Cheek pads and liners are easy to remove and machine washable at 30°.
Other racing graphic options are available including Scott Redding and Johann Zarco replicas. A second new addition to the range is the MotoGP inspired SKWAL CUP which is a stunning black and red design. All the racing inspired helmets benefit from an additional tinted visor as part of the package.
Other graphic and plain colour options are available and a selection of tinted and iridium visors can be purchased, to give them a racier look.
The SKWAL CUP comes in two shell sizes, XS -M and L-XXL, to ensure the perfect fit and prices start from £229.99 for a plain and graphic options, the Granado replica £299.99.
