Mips is a leading technology in sliding inside the helmet, designed to reduce the rotational forces that can derive from certain impacts. When the head turns quickly and stops abruptly, rotational acceleration can cause high levels of tension in the fabric. The stretching of the fabric caused by these movements can give rise to different types of brain lesions. The helmets that adopt Mips technology can offer a higher level of protection in certain types of impact. Mips uses a flat movement system that moves in the helmet. This layer is designed to rotate inside the helmet with the aim of slowing down or reducing the amount of energy transferred from or towards the head. Science says that if it is possible to reduce stress associated with rotational acceleration, it is also possible to reduce the risk and severity of the brain damage.
