MIPS stands for “Multi-directional Impact Protection System.” The tech consists of a low-friction layer between the helmet’s shell and liner, allowing the liner to move independently during impact and reducing trauma to the brain. In addition to this cutting-edge technology, the Fornix Backcountry Helmet is also incredibly light. Plus, it has an intuitive adjustable fit system and six adjustable vents. Comfort and warmth make the Fornix something you look to forward to putting on instead of dreading when it’s time to rip skins and prep for the downhill.
