MIPS Ski and Snowboard Helmets
MIPS or Multi-directional Impact Protection System is an innovative safety technology for ski helmets and other protective gear. This MIPS system adds an additional layer inside the helmet, designed to move independently upon impact. It absorbs part of the impact energy before it reaches the head, thereby reducing the risk of brain injury. A MIPS helmet combines advanced protection with comfort for a safe and enjoyable skiing experience.

What is a MIPS ski helmet?
MIPS (Multi-Directional Impact Protection System) relies on a thin low-friction layer placed between the helmet’s protective foam and your head.
During a collision, this layer allows a slight movement of 10 to 15 mm, which mimics the brain’s natural protective mechanism.
In the event of a fall, a helmet almost never hits the ground vertically: oblique impacts generate rotational forces that can be dangerous for the brain.
Thanks to MIPS, the outer shell can slide slightly, significantly reducing these rotational forces transmitted to the skull.
This technology adds only 25 to 45 grams, providing significantly enhanced protection against head trauma.
Is the MIPS system effective? Glisshop experts’ opinion
Yes, the MIPS system is widely recognised as highly effective in improving brain protection in the event of a fall.
Unlike a traditional helmet, which only manages direct impacts, a MIPS-equipped helmet reduces the rotational forces generated by oblique impacts — the most common type in skiing or snowboarding.
Independent laboratory tests have shown that MIPS significantly decreases rotational motion transmitted to the brain, thereby reducing the risk of concussion and brain injury.
Another advantage: this extra protection does not compromise comfort or ventilation, and adds only minimal weight.
In short, MIPS provides genuine additional safety without sacrificing comfort or performance.
