Product Features

MIPS (Multi-directional Impact Protection System) - A low-friction layer between the helmet's outer shell and inner liner. It allows the helmet to rotate slightly upon impact, reducing the rotational forces transferred to the brain and decreasing the risk of brain injuries
Aramid Bridge - Integrated aramid fibres reinforce the helmetâ€™s structural integrity, enhancing impact resistance while keeping the helmet lightweight. This bridge helps distribute impact forces more evenly across the helmet
Adjustable Ventilation - Allows you to control airflow and regulate temperature. This feature helps maintain comfort in varying weather conditions by managing heat and ventilation
Recco Reflector - A RECCO reflector is embedded in the helmet to improve searchability in the event of an avalanche. This reflector helps rescue teams locate you using RECCO detection devices
Dial-Fit Adjustment System - Allows for precise, one-handed adjustments to ensure a secure and comfortable fit
Ear Pads - Soft, removable ear pads provide added warmth and comfort. They can be taken out for washing or to increase ventilation as needed
Goggle Compatible - The helmet is designed to work seamlessly with various goggles, offering a snug fit to prevent gaps and ensure clear vision
