Clemson football will be trying out something a little different at the spring game this weekend: the Speed Flex helmet, courtesy of Riddell.
Here is a look at the helmet the Tigers have been using.
Here is what Riddell says about the Speed Flex helmet and what their goal was in designing it.
The goal was to design a helmet with fully integrated components and innovations for peak athlete performance and state-of-the-art protection. We looked at the players’ wants and needs – at all levels of competition. The result: The Riddell Speed Flex. Backed by extensive research, including our 2+ million data points of on-field impacts, the Speed Flex introduces many technical features that are new to the field.
