Mirage Mips Helmet - Women's

MIPS, or Multi-directional Impact Protection System, is a safety technology designed to reduce the risk of brain injuries during impacts. It allows the helmet to move slightly on your head during a fall, which helps absorb and redirect the forces that can cause concussions. This extra layer of protection makes MIPS-equipped helmets a smart choice for anyone looking to stay safe while skiing or snowboarding.

Aerocore technology combines traditional EPS foam with a material called Koroyd to enhance impact absorption and airflow. This unique construction not only provides better protection during falls but also improves ventilation, keeping you cool and comfortable while you enjoy your winter sports. Choosing a helmet with Aerocore means you’re investing in both safety and comfort.

Snapfit earpads are removable pads that cover your ears inside the helmet. They are designed to keep your ears warm during cold weather activities like skiing or snowboarding. The "snapfit" feature allows you to easily attach or detach them based on the weather conditions, giving you the flexibility to customize your comfort while on the slopes.

In-mold construction is a manufacturing process that fuses the helmet's outer shell with the inner foam layer during production. This method results in a lighter and more comfortable helmet without compromising safety. Helmets made with in-mold construction are easier to wear for extended periods, making them ideal for long days on the mountain.

The AirEvac2 ventilation system is designed to manage airflow within the helmet. It allows warm air to escape while letting cool air in, which helps prevent overheating during physical activities. This feature is especially important for maintaining comfort during long skiing or snowboarding sessions, ensuring you stay focused on your performance rather than feeling too hot.

Choosing a helmet with both MIPS and Aerocore technology means you’re prioritizing your safety and comfort. MIPS provides an extra layer of protection against concussions, while Aerocore enhances impact absorption and airflow. Together, these features create a helmet that not only keeps you safe but also ensures you stay comfortable and cool during your winter sports adventures.
