The Mips® Integra TX system complements the traditional fabric-and-foam comfort padding with an integrated low-friction layer. The system provides movement to help reduce rotational motion to the head in certain angled impacts.
When falling, the head is most likely to hit the surface at a slanted or diagonal angle.
Angled impacts can force the head to rotate abruptly. This may lead to concussions and brain trauma.
To help mitigate the risk of brain trauma, the Mips® safety system is designed to redirect rotational motion away frin tge gead by allowing movement within the helmet by 10-15mm.
The Mips® Integra TX system complements the traditional fabric-and-foam comfort padding with an integrated low-friction layer. The system provides movement to help reduce rotational motion to the head in certain angled impacts, without altering comfort and fit or adding weight to the helmet.
When a helmet is impacted at an angle, it can cause the head to rotate suddenly and violently. This is a common source of concussions and brain injury.
In Mips® Integra TX a 0.1 mm low-friction layer is sewn into the comfort padding. This makes for an invisible and fully integrated system – a comfortable solution that does not alter the fit or weight of the helmet.
