This is the fourth year in a row that I've had the chance to try the Helium Enduro set with the coat in the pro version. What differentiates this version from the regular one is the inscriptions of distinctive performance elements such as "Rotax", "XPS" and "KYB". The 2021 version is as comfortable and refined as the previous versions, but I love the very sporty look. In fact, it reminds me of the style of the X-TEAM race edition jacket, but in a more hybrid version.
This package is specifically designed for active driving where the driver expends a lot of energy. It's not a jacket that's designed for very cold days since it's semi-insulated. Indeed, this set is insulated with Primaloft Black. The Sympatex membrane is designed to be perfectly wind resistant, waterproof and highly ventilated. The presence of Cordura fabrics in abrasion-sensitive areas provides uncompromising durability.
In mild weather, it is not necessary to put on a lot of underwear, but when the temperature plunges you need to add intermediate layers to be comfortable on the trail. For the upper body, the addition of the Ski-Doo compressible jacket in combination with the Enduro Pro allows the jacket to be used in much colder temperatures. It's a suit that I use for most of my rides and I find it particularly comfortable. In addition, this jacket has, on the right side, the attachments for the heated visor wire of the Oxygen helmet which is really practical. The bibs are also very comfortable and specially designed for active riding.
The Helium Enduro kit from Ski-Doo is a hybrid package with a very sporty look.

I obviously recommend this package because of its quality and its impact on the driving experience. After testing the versions of the last four years, I am still satisfied with the product. The bibs quality and performance of this package is really impressive. If your driving style is very active and you are often in off-road mode, the Helium Enduro package is for you. The addition of the compressible jacket as an intermediate layer allows you to ride this package in colder weather. If you regularly ride your snowmobile in very cold temperatures or if you are not very active, it is important to check the level of insulation required according to your riding style. BRP offers many options of clothing packages to suit your riding style and budget. The best thing to do is to contact your BRP dealer directly or visit www.ski-doo.com for more information.
In closing, I would like to thank BRP for providing me a 2021 version of the Enduro Pro jacket for this season, to complement the current sets, as part of our clothing and accessory reviews.
