EPIC Responder Plus

The Team Wendy EPIC Responder Plus is the baseline patrol configuration in the EPIC ballistic helmet line — same Ceradyne Seamless Shell ballistic protection as the Protector and Specialist, in a streamlined no-side-rail configuration designed for patrol officers who need certified ballistic head protection without the cost or complexity of the higher-tier accessory platform. Uses band-mounted face shields rather than rail-mounted, paired with Team Wendy's CAM FIT BOA retention and EPIC Air Fit liner for the same comfort and adjustability across the EPIC line.

NIJ Level IIIA certified — same ballistic shell as Protector and Specialist
Ceradyne Seamless Shell Technology in UHMWPE — substantially lighter than ACH
Baseline patrol configuration — no side rails, uses band-mounted face shields
