SHOEI Emergency Quick Release System (EQRS) [Video]

SHOEI Emergency Quick Release System or also known as the EQRS provides easy mechanism for paramedic team to remove the helmet. It can be seen as in the picture above with the red tab that shows the position of the EQRS mechanism to pull out the side padding easily. Nobody wants to be in this emergency situation but if it do happens, EQRS can prove its benefit. The system helps to minimise the critical injury reaction time as compared to the helmet without the mechanism. Further post-injury related case can also be minimised since there are no more cutting of the helmet padding which are critical if the riders got neck injury. EQRS are available for SHOEI X-12 and GT-Air. Check out the video embed after the jump:
