HEAD Downforce FIS MIPS Ski Racing Helmet - Lightweight & Protective for Alpine Skiing, Snowboarding & Winter Sports

Description & Features

This is the new benchmark for racing helmets. A strong, durable shell in a streamlined, aerodynamic design that's also extremely light and incredibly safe. This helmet is suitable for all alpine competitions, as it has a speed mode with acoustic adapters as well as a gate mode, where the adapters can be exchanged to mount a chin guard for technical disciplines. By adding MIPS, an additional low-friction layer is integrated into the helmet, which is designed to reduce rotational motion transferred to the brain in the case of 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.

Changeable Adapter Plates

Use the flat adapter plates with optimized acoustics for speed disciplines, the chin guard adapter for technical disciplines.
