Overview

Ruroc began as a snowboard start-up determined to bring serious protection to the slopes. Today it builds premium helmets for motorcyclists, skiers and snowboarders who demand more from every ride: protection that performs, comfort that lasts, and design that stands out. Its founder, a die-hard snowboarder, made the world's first modular full-face snow helmet, the RG1, which dropped in 2008, followed by the RG2 in 2024. The full-face remains its bestseller, and the brand also makes more conventional lids such as the LITE and LITE+.

History

Ruroc began as a snowboard start-up determined to bring serious protection to the slopes. Its founder was a die-hard snowboarder who looked around the slopes and realised no one cared enough about their heads or faces, so he made the world's first modular full-face snow helmet. The RG1 dropped in 2008, followed by the RG2 in 2024. Even though Ruroc now makes more conventional lids like the LITE and LITE+, the full-face is still its ride-or-die bestseller. Today Ruroc builds premium helmets for motorcyclists, skiers and snowboarders.
