Technologies
MIPS – Multi-Directional Impact Protection System – is a technology designed to provide protection from oblique impacts. It is used in helmets for various purposes, including leisure, outdoor sports such as mountaineering, mountain biking and motorcycling, as well as workplace use. MIPS is a movable layer integrated inside the helmet, close to the head. It is not rigidly attached and can slide forwards and backwards by 10–15 mm. In the event of a side impact, this range of movement allows the helmet structure to slide and redirect rotational forces away from the head and brain. Helmets with MIPS provide a higher level of protection than conventional helmets.
Double-moulding technology – the protective EPS material is moulded directly into the polycarbonate shell and covered underneath by an additional polycarbonate shell. This technology enables a helmet that is lightweight and strong. The lower polycarbonate shell provides additional protection. EPS is a special material with microscopic air bubbles that effectively absorbs impact energy in a fall.
Anatomic IAS – the helmet size can be adjusted easily and precisely with one hand by turning the dial at the back. The fit can be adjusted to the head circumference, and the helmet’s vertical position can also be adjusted.
Monomatic easy-fastening system – the anatomically shaped buckle can be fastened and released easily with one hand. The strap length is adjustable in increments. A chin pad provides additional comfort.
FAS straps – the strap position can be adjusted to the shape of the head. The straps are adjustable at several points.
Vent padding – made from moisture-wicking material and fitted with ventilation channels. The padding is comfortable, gentle on the skin and quick-drying. It can be removed and washed.
Measure your head circumference before choosing a helmet to select the correct size. It is recommended to measure with a string approximately 1.5 cm above the ears.
Each helmet is carefully tested in a laboratory. Complies with EN 1078.
