Smith Counter Mips helmet

SMITH Counter Mips Helmet

Charge the racecourse and carve the mountain with unwavering confidence in the SMITH Counter Mips helmet. Engineered for the demanding world of alpine skiing, this helmet is built for athletes who push boundaries and require uncompromising safety at high speeds. The FIS-approved Smith Counter helmet brings the elevated impact absorption technology of zonal Koroyd® and MIPS® to every run, giving you the peace of mind to focus purely on your line. Its advanced construction combines an exceptionally tough ABS hardshell with an engineered foam core, a pairing that masterfully maximizes durability and impact resistance while keeping the overall weight to a minimum.

This helmet is a fortress of protection. At its core, the design is centered around multi-layered, advanced safety systems. The revolutionary zonal Koroyd® coverage provides lightweight, energy-absorbing, and exceptionally ventilated impact protection precisely where it is needed most. This honeycomb-like structure crushes on impact to absorb more energy than traditional materials. For durability against the repeated knocks and bumps common in training and racing, the engineered EPP foam core enhances resilience in key zones. Furthermore, the integrated MIPS® Brain Protection System is a critical feature designed to reduce dangerous rotational forces caused by angled impacts to the head, adding a crucial layer of safety for high-stakes skiing scenarios.

Beyond its world-class protection, the Counter Mips helmet is designed for seamless integration and all-day comfort. Experience a perfect, fog-free day on the slopes, as the helmet is meticulously designed for ultimate integration with Smith goggles. This creates a unified system that maximizes comfort and promotes efficient airflow, pulling warm, moist air away from your goggles and exhausting it out of the helmet. Adjustments are simple and secure, even with gloves on, thanks to the intuitive Fidlock® strap buckle, which offers easy one-hand operation with a satisfying magnetic click. To maintain freshness run after run, the helmet features an XT2® antimicrobial lining that provides sweat-activated odor control, keeping your helmet feeling clean throughout the season. For dedicated racers, the helmet is fully compatible with our slalom chin bar (sold separately), allowing for easy customization for gate training and competition.
