MIPS technology

MIPS or Multi-Directional Impact Protection System. This technology was created in 2001 in Stockholm by members of the Royal Institute of Technology. MIPS is a world leader in protection thanks to more than 30 years of experience by designers specialising in medical technology and research in collaboration with leading neurosurgeons.

WHAT IS A MIPS ?

A thin layer between the liner and the head that moves independently of the helmet, following the movement of the head in case of impact. This technology mimics the protective structure of the brain to reduce rotational forces and brain trauma from oblique impacts.

These inclined impacts are very common and mainly in action sports.

MIPS RELIABILITY

 

 

Helmets are usually tested by dropping them vertically onto a solid surface. Conventional helmets are designed to protect you from straight and radical impacts.

 

 

 

MIPS is in partnership with multiple brands present on easy-gliss.com, such as Rossignol, ScottSmith and many others.
