Smith Junior's Scout MIPS Helmet 2026
Smith Scout Jr. Mips® Youth Snow Helmet
The Smith Scout Jr. Mips® is a tough, all-season youth snow helmet that pairs Bombshell ABS durability with Mips® impact protection, eight fixed vents, and a comfy self-adjusting fit so kids can ride the park, trees, and trails with confidence.
Why the Scout Jr. Mips® Stands Out
- Bombshell ABS shell: Advanced injection-molded ABS construction shrugs off dings, dents, and hard knocks, giving young riders durable protection season after season.
- Mips® impact protection: The integrated Mips® Brain Protection System adds a low-friction layer designed to reduce rotational forces from angled impacts for extra peace of mind.
- Dual-certified, all-season use: Certified for both snow and bike standards, this helmet works for skiing, snowboarding, and biking, so it can live in their gear bag all year long.
- Self-adjusting fit: The Lifestyle Fit System flexes to match your child’s head shape, automatically dialing in a secure and comfortable fit without fussy knobs or straps.
- Fog-fighting AirEvac™ ventilation: Eight fixed vents and the AirEvac™ system pull warm air away from goggles to help keep lenses clear and vision sharp from first chair to last run.
- Cozy bombshell ear pads: Removable ear pads offer warm, form-fitting comfort on cold days and can be pulled out in spring or for bike use.
- Goggle-friendly design: A removable goggle strap lock keeps straps secure over the helmet, or pop it off for a clean, under-the-helmet goggle look.
- Kid-approved comfort: A low-profile shape, soft interior, and simple styling make it a helmet kids actually want to wear all day.
Ideal For
The Scout Jr. Mips® is ideal for kids who ride everything on the hill—park laps, trees, groomers, and side hits—and also hop on their bike once the snow melts. It’s built for youth skiers and snowboarders from beginner to advanced who need a durable, do-it-all helmet that keeps up with fast progression.

How It Compares
Compared to basic kids’ helmets without Mips® and dual certification, the Scout Jr. Mips® delivers upgraded rotational impact protection, tougher ABS Bombshell construction, and true all-season versatility. Versus heavier, bulkier lids, its clean profile, self-adjusting fit, and eight fixed vents keep it comfortable and fog-free so kids can focus on fun, not fiddling with gear.
Bottom Line: The Smith Scout Jr. Mips® Youth Snow Helmet is a rugged, all-season kids’ helmet with Mips® safety, a self-adjusting fit, and dialed ventilation—perfect for young riders who are on the mountain all winter and on their bikes all summer.
