HEAD Downforce FIS MIPS Helmet

Description & Features

The HEAD Downforce FIS MIPS Helmet has a strong, durable shell in a streamlined, aerodynamic design that’s exceptionally light and incredibly safe. This helmet is suitable for all alpine competitions, as it has a speed mode with acoustic adapters and a gate mode, where the adapters can be exchanged to mount a chin guard for technical disciplines. MIPS technology adds a low-friction layer that is integrated into the helmet, which is designed to reduce rotational motion transferred to the brain during angled impacts.

Technical Info

MIPS Technology

The MIPS Brain Protection System is a helmet-integrated, low-friction layer designed to reduce rotational motion transferred to the brain from angled impacts to the head.

Dual Density EPS Core

This patented core technology is made from EPS with dual densities, which increases the helmet’s performance to pass the FIS RH 2013 standard.

Microfleece Beanie Liner

The soft microfleece material of the Beanie Liner adapts perfectly to the head and thus avoids any bruises and the unpleasant entering of cold air. Molded-in mesh zones let heat and moisture escape to the outside and, together with the ventilation system, ensure a pleasant head climate.

Thermal Ventilation

Thermal Ventilation is HEAD’s automatic ventilation system which leads warm air away from the head to the outside without allowing any cold air to the inside.
