SMITH Icon Jr. MIPS Helmet

Yes, the Icon Jr. is specifically designed for competitive youth racing. It is FIS RH 2013 certified, meaning it meets the rigorous safety standards required for sanctioned downhill and slalom events.

Koroyd is an advanced material that absorbs impact energy more efficiently than traditional foam. It allows the helmet to be lightweight while providing superior protection against high-speed impacts, which is critical for young racers.

The Icon Jr. is engineered for seamless integration with Smith goggles to ensure a precise fit that eliminates the gap where cold air enters. While it may fit other brands, pairing it with Smith goggles provides the best performance against fogging.

The Fidlock buckle uses a magnetic sliding mechanism that allows for easy, one-handed opening and closing. It is designed to be secure enough for racing but simple enough for young athletes to operate even while wearing gloves.

Yes, the helmet features an engineered EPP core specifically designed to withstand repeated impacts from slalom gates. This durability ensures the helmet maintains its structural integrity throughout a long racing season.

The helmet weighs 700 grams, which is quite light for a race-certified helmet with MIPS. The integration of MIPS technology adds a layer of rotational impact protection without making the helmet feel heavy or bulky for a young skier.
