The ELIA helmet was designed and developed to respond specifically to the needs of women. The innovative OMEGA headband system (Petzl patent) allows the helmet to be put on and removed easily and offers maximum comfort. In addition to this exclusive feature, the helmet has a new headband adjustment mechanism. It allows the helmet to be precisely adjusted for different head shapes.

A stop in my life...

Liv Sansoz — Sat, 06 Mar 2010 20:37:00 +0100

As some of you know, I had a serious accident last December. Serious but thankfully not too dramatic.
I haven’t mentioned it here or talked much about it because I have been putting all of my energy into healing and rehabilitation. 
I was lucky, in my bad luck, and everything eventually went much better than what the doctors told me in the beginning.

First of all, I had an excellent surgeon and he did a very good job repairing my broken sacrum with two titanium screws, which will stay in place for less than a year.
