Making Football A Safer Sport

VICIS CEO Dave Marver discusses the Zero1 helmet, rated by the NFL as the safest ever made. Marver explains what makes the helmet different and what's next for the company. Marver explains the mission to make a safer helmet started when he realized there had been little to no innovation in football helmets since the 1970s. The Zero1 is different because it actually yields to contact, like a car bumper. Marver says the company saw an opportunity to "disrupt" the helmet market in a positive way. Marver explains VICIS isn't just interested in making football safer, but many sports including soccer.
