MIPS
SAFETY FOR HELMETS
Mips (Multi-directional Impact Protection System) technology comes standard in all Pret X helmets. MIPS sets the highest standard in helmet protection and safety using a low-friction slip plane designed to rotate inside the helmet, absorbing rotational energy and reducing the tearing effect on the brain.
Not all MIPS systems are the same. Pret uses only the latest C2 system for the lightest weight and best fit.
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.
