Safety First With MIPS

MIPS (Multi-Directional Impact Protection System) is a technology which has gained significant attention in recent years for its potential to enhance helmet safety. When looking into buying medium-range helmet protection, MIPS is something you will definitely need to look into.

Understanding MIPS

The main focus MIPS technology is attempting to accomplish is protecting the brain from rotational forces during an impact. The core of MIPS technology is a low-friction slip-plane system. It’s located inside the helmet, between the outer shell and the inner padding. This system allows the helmet to move slightly relative to your head during an angled impact, mimicking the brain’s own protective mechanism.

When an angled impact occurs, the MIPS layer allows the helmet to rotate slightly around your head, redirecting the rotational forces away from the brain. This reduction in rotational acceleration can significantly reduce the risk of brain injuries. With comprehensive protection the combination of MIPS and traditional impact-absorbing materials in a helmet offers a comprehensive solution for both linear and rotational impacts.

Why Choose a MIPS Helmet

The primary reason to opt for a MIPS helmet is to enhance noggin safety. Traditional non-MIPS helmets protect against linear impacts, but MIPS technology adds a layer of protection against the more abnormal impacts that may occur in a fall. MIPS helmets have undergone rigorous testing, and numerous real-world studies have demonstrated their effectiveness in reducing the risk of injuring your brain. MIPS technology doesn’t compromise comfort or performance. These helmets are designed to fit comfortably and securely without the rider even noticing the layer of MIPS inside the helmet.

Who has MIPS

There are a variety of different brands and styles to pick from when looking into MIPS technology all of which are specifically tailored to each rider's needs. With brands like Salomon, Sandbox, and more there will certainly be a helmet for you!
