Smith Optics Rodeo Jr. MIPS

MIPS, or Multi-directional Impact Protection System, is a low-friction layer inside the helmet designed to reduce rotational forces during an angled impact. It provides an extra layer of safety specifically engineered to protect the brain against certain types of rotational motion.

The dial fit system is located at the back of the helmet and allows you to tighten or loosen the internal harness with a simple turn. This ensures a snug, secure fit that can be adjusted on the fly without needing to remove the helmet.

Yes, the ear pads are removable. This feature is particularly useful for regulating temperature during warmer spring skiing or if your child prefers a less restrictive feel around their ears.

The Rodeo Jr. features ten fixed vents designed to promote consistent airflow. This ventilation system is integrated to pull moisture away from the goggle lens, which significantly helps reduce fogging throughout the day.

ABS is a high-impact thermoplastic known for its toughness and resistance to dents and scratches. It is an excellent choice for a junior helmet because it stands up well to the inevitable bumps and drops that happen during daily use on the mountain.

This helmet fits head circumferences between 48cm and 58cm. To get an accurate measurement, use a soft measuring tape to wrap around the widest part of the head, typically about an inch above the eyebrows.
