What is Mips®?
The Mips® safety system is designed to provide added safety for helmets in many accidents. For certain impacts, the Mips® system can reduce harmful forces that might otherwise be transferred to the user’s head.
Traditional helmets are designed and tested for straight impacts, but most impacts are angled, which can cause rotational motion to the head.
The rotational motion can cause brain injuries.
The Low Friction Layer is intended to help reduce the rotational motion to the head in certain angled impacts.
