Smith Optics Liberty MIPS Snow 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 helps protect your brain from the damaging energy often associated with ski and snowboard crashes.

Yes, the helmet features a Regulator climate control system. You can easily slide the vent cover open or closed with one hand, even while wearing gloves, to manage airflow depending on whether you are riding in cold, stormy conditions or warm, sunny weather.

The Liberty is designed with Smith's AirEvac ventilation system, which is specifically engineered to pull warm, moist air away from your goggles and out through the helmet's vents. This constant airflow helps prevent lens fogging throughout the day.

The VaporFit system uses a dial at the back of the helmet to provide 270 degrees of adjustment. Simply turn the dial to tighten or loosen the internal harness until the helmet feels snug and secure around your head without creating pressure points.

Yes, the Snapfit SL2 ear pads are removable. You can easily take them out if you prefer a lighter feel or if you are riding in warmer spring conditions.

Yes, the Liberty is compatible with Aleck audio systems. The ear pads are designed to accommodate drop-in audio speakers, allowing you to listen to music or communicate with your group while on the slopes.
