Move Forward
The Avance MIPS is the most advanced helmet in Giro's history. We could fill this entire catalog explaining the dozens of complex features that set this helmet apart — details like MIPS Spherical (the exclusive-to-Giro design that redirects impact energy with two separate layers of EP-Premium foam). We could write a scientific manual about the TeXtreme carbon shell that boasts an intelligent shape with material added strategically to the areas where gate impacts commonly occur (Hammerhead Design). We could fill pages with quotes from the U.S. Ski Team and our sponsored racers about how Avance MIPS is more comfortable, quiet and lightweight than anything they've ever experienced. If you have any interest in Alpine Ski Racing, or any interest in the future of helmet technology, do yourself a favor and visit Giro.com/AvanceMIPS
Features
· MIPS Spherical is a refinement and evolution of the Multi-Directional Impact Protection System (MIPS). With this sophisticated design, two layers of EPP foam fit together like a ball and socket. This system helps protect the brain from rotational energy by allowing up to 15 millimeters of relative motion between the helmet and head during the first milliseconds of an impact.
· Hammerhead Design — A smart shape with materials added strategically to the areas where gate impacts commonly occur
· TeXtreme carbon — ultralight carbon shell that's tougher, stronger and stiffer
· EPP liner — Expanded Polypropylene (EPP) offers impressive resistance. This crushable foam regains its shape and retains some of its protective qualities after multiple impacts.
· X-Static anti-microbial padding — Pure silver is the secret ingredient that gives X-Static the power to provide natural, permanent anti-odor protection to keep your helmet feeling and smelling fresh
· Travel bag included
· Chinbar compatible (available accessory, sold separately)
· Seamless Compatibility with Giro VIVID goggles – For optimal performance of both helmets and goggles, Giro products are designed to work together, ensuring a seamless interface between helmet and goggle for an exceptional fit and dependable, worry-free function
· Compliance: ASTM 2040, CE EN1077 Class A, FIS RH13 specifications
