Niederberger explains his new helmet designWave and iceberg on the mask// CURRENTNew season, new helmet. Also this year, our goalie Mathias Niederberger has incorporated personal elements into the design of his helmet, with which our national player will be on the ice from now on.

The new head protection of our goalkeeper also has its own design in the coming season. In addition to the classic look in the colors of the Red Bulls and the number 35 in the middle of the mask is on the right side of the helmet is a large wave. The left side is adorned with a large iceberg. For Niederberger, a look with great significance.

Water and ice - motifs with symbolic power

"The water on one side is to symbolize the Mediterranean Sea. I like to be at the Mediterranean Sea, in or with the boat also on the water. I've been vacationing in Sardinia for as long as I can remember. On the other side is an iceberg, which is supposed to stand for ice hockey," explains the goalie.

The vice world champion himself initiated the creation of the design. "Water and ice - these are my elements. The combination suits me. The fact that it worked out this way is pretty cool," the 30-year-old says happily.
