A full-face helmet built for downhill speed and freeride progression. The Hardline delivers ASTM-certified protection with a lightweight build that’s ready for big mountain lines and bike park laps. Developed with input from Smith team riders, it’s tuned for aggressive riding and high-consequence terrain. The Hardline features a full carbon shell with Koroyd honeycomb for impact absorption. Ample ventilation keeps riders cool under pressure, while AirEvac channels integrate seamlessly with goggles to prevent fogging. Engineered with MIPS and collarbone cushion zones for added safety, it’s the most advanced full-face helmet Smith has ever made.
