Smith Vantage MIPS Helmet

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 allows the helmet to slide slightly relative to your head, which can help protect your brain from certain types of rotational trauma.

The AirEvac 2 system is highly effective because it pulls warm, moist air away from your goggles and channels it through the helmet's vents. By creating a continuous airflow path, it significantly reduces the likelihood of fogging, especially when paired with Smith goggles.

Yes, the helmet features adjustable climate control vents. You can easily open or close the vents with a simple slider on the top of the helmet, allowing you to regulate your temperature as conditions shift from cold mornings to warmer afternoons.

Yes, the Boa FS360 dial is designed to be easily manipulated even while wearing gloves. It provides a precise, 360-degree fit adjustment, so you can quickly tighten or loosen the helmet for a secure feel without having to take your gear off.

The ear pads are removable, which is great for warmer spring days or if you prefer a different fit. The helmet is also audio-compatible, meaning you can easily install most drop-in audio systems into the ear pads for music on the lift.

The Hybrid SL construction combines a durable, hard-shell exterior in high-impact areas with a lightweight, in-mold construction elsewhere. This gives you the best of both worlds: robust protection where you need it most and a noticeably lighter feel on your head for all-day comfort.
