Marker Confident MIPS skihelmet, white/grey

Marker Confident MIPS skihelmet, white/grey

• Weight: 480gr
• Shell: In-Mold technology
  Extremely light but super stable construction: In-Mold Impact-Shields distribute the force generated in the event of a fall from the inside to a larger area - this results in a weight of just over 400gr - unique in this class of helmets!
  In addition, the shell is extremely small for an in-mold helmet and is less bulky - style and safety in perfect balance!
  All MARKER IN-MOULD and HYBRID SHELL helmets have an additional polycarbonate plate on the lower edge, which provides extra safety in the event of a side impact. It also protects the helmet from unsightly damage during transportation or daily use. Depending on the model, 180°, 270° or 360° EDGE PROTECTION is used.
  
• MIPS - Multi-directional Impact Protection System
  The additional MIPS improves the protection in case of rotational impact, more info: see below...
• AIR JAM CLIMATE CONTROL
The AIR JAM CLIMATE CONTROL allows the air flow to be regulated by means of a waterproof, foldable inner lining. When the openings are closed, a warm, dry air cushion is created, especially on cold days, which prevents the head from overcooling. On warm days, the outlets can be opened to generate maximum air flow in the MarkAIR Channel Ventilation System.
• Xdry PERFORMANCE LINING
Technical performance lining that ensures optimum heat management. The structured material keeps out the cold and allows air to escape when there is excess heat. Moisture is also wicked away to the outside to prevent excessive perspiration. Quickly removable and hand washable in lukewarm water.MarkAIR CHANNEL SYSTEM
Sophisticated temperature regulation consisting of a network of ventilation openings and air channels.
• The MarkAIR CHANNEL SYSTEM
  literally sucks the warm, moist air out of the goggles, creating a pleasant, constant flow of air that floods the entire system and regulates it automatically.
• CLIMATE CONTROL
  For individually controlled helmet ventilation - even when wearing gloves and while riding! When the system is fully open, the special design of the outlets prevents the head from overcooling.
• RTS FIT SYSTEM
  The three-point construction at the back of the head can be adjusted to your individual head shape in seconds. For the best possible wearing comfort, a play-free fit and extra safety. Can be operated with just one hand, even with a glove.
  Fidlock magnetic hook buckle
  The first magnetic safety buckle with sliding mechanism that can be opened and locked with one hand. Works even with glove on!
• SOGNAR removable ear pads
  3D-modelled, pressure-free ear pads that allow for different configurations depending on temperature, head shape and use of goggles or sunglasses. Each configuration offers significantly better hearing than before.
  Of course, the SoGnar ear pads can also be removed completely
• Certificate: CE EN 1077, CLASS B / ASTM 2040

About MIPS® Brain Protection System:
MIPS stands for Multi Directional Impact Protection System - A system that is designed to protect against impacts with different directions of movement/force.
These different directions of force are caused by impacts that hit the helmet at an angle. Classic helmets best absorb static (straight) impacts that strike at a right angle and do not create a rotational force.
Since static impacts are unrealistic and you usually hit the ground or other obstacles at an angle, the MIPS system was developed. It absorbs both static forces and rotational forces.

The model of the MIPS system is the human brain.
To protect the brain, there is a fluid between the brain and the skull bone. In the event of a blow to the head, the resulting rotational force is dissipated by minimal movements of this fluid layer and the force is not transmitted to the brain.
MIPS is a copy of this layer, so to speak.
For this purpose, a movable second shell is mounted in the outer shell of the helmet. This second shell rests directly on the head.
Now, if an impact occurs at an angle, the resulting rotational force is not transferred to the head, but is dissipated by the movement between the first and second shells. This system is very effective and can be integrated into any helmet without major problems.
