Lightweight Protection with Adjustable Climate Control

• Zonal Koroyd® Coverage: Provides lightweight, energy-absorbing, and ventilated impact protection in targeted areas of the helmet.
• Mips® Brain Protection System: Adds a low-friction layer designed to help reduce harmful forces that may otherwise be transferred to the head during certain angled impacts.
• Lightweight In-Mold Construction: Fuses the exterior shell and EPS foam in a lightweight, durable two-piece design.
• Regulator Climate Control: Offers easy, one-handed vent adjustment so airflow can be adapted to changing temperatures and weather.
• 16 Vents: Provide extensive ventilation for temperature management throughout the day.
• Micro-Adjustable Dial Fit: Allows quick, precise fit adjustments on the go with one hand.
• AirEvac™ Integration: Works with Smith goggles to move warm, moisture-laden air away from the goggle and help reduce fogging.
• Snapfit SL2 Ear Pads: Removable ear pads add warmth and are compatible with audio chips.
