Is the @alpinestars S-R7 the new mid-tier king, or Is the @alpinestars S-R7 the new mid-tier king, or just a budget shadow of the R10? 🏍️💨

I’ve been living with this helmet on the track and the canyons to see if Alpinestars actually delivered on that "MotoGP DNA for the street" promise. Between the crazy 220-degree field of view and a shell recipe that’s performing 80% better than safety thresholds for rotational acceleration, this isn't just another "hard bucket".

From the "Turbulators" on the visor to the rear vents that actually stabilize the aero at triple-digit speeds, we’re nerding out on some serious fluid dynamics today.

In the full review on YouTube:

The "Safety Sandwich": Why fiberglass and aramid might be better for "mere mortals" than full carbon.

Collarbone Protection: How those orange triangles actually save your bones.

The "Bobblehead Effect": Why this is one of the quietest, most stable lids I’ve ever worn.

A-Connect: Is the integrated tech worth the $550 price tag? 

Head over to YouTub to see if the S-R7 earned its permanent spot in my gear closet! 🏁

This isn't our usual content, but sometimes a stor This isn't our usual content, but sometimes a story is just too big to keep to ourselves. We have a new team member... meet Sabine Schmitz! 🏁🐾

She didn’t just wander into our lives, she burst onto the scene in the wildest way imaginable. I was teaching out at the track when, in the middle of a high-speed A-Group session, as all the bikes were diving hard into Turn 1... this tiny grey fluff ran straight onto the race line.

Cue instant panic, a rapid red flag, and a heart-stopping scramble to secure the track.

This brave little soul had somehow navigated a high-speed environment while dodging raptors, a fox family and race-fueled liter bikes. She was quickly scooped up, and, honestly, there was no way she was going to a shelter. A race-track cat needs a race track name; one that can match that spirit, so we named her after one of the absolute GOATs of speed and grit: Sabine Schmitz.

Since that day, Sabine has been growing at record-breaking speeds. But the best part? She has absolutely claimed Chase the Dog as her best friend. Despite the size and age difference, she adores him, and you’ll almost always find them hanging out together or napping between "sessions." 🐕🐈‍⬛

It’s a solid reminder that some of the best teammates are the ones that wander into your life when you least expect it. If you have the space, consider adoption. There are so many animals waiting for their own "green flag" moment.

Expect to see her making more cameos.
