iXS TRIGGER FF MIPS Camo MTB Full Face Helmet

The TRIGGER FF MIPS Camo MTB full face helmet from iXS is an amazingly lightweight full face helmet that is ideal for all-mountain, trail or enduro riding. It offers you all-round protection thanks to its MIPS PROTECTION SYSTEM and the clever ALL IN ONE INMOULD technology, in which the helmet shell and chin bar are directly connected to the absorbent EPS material. The many vents and their arrangement angles as well as integrated air channels provide high air circulation and ideal cooling. The ERGOFIT ULTRA high-precision adjustment unit allows for comfortable and accurate adjustments in vertical and horizontal direction to create a good fit and high comfort. The two-stage adjustable visor makes it easy to position the goggle. The easy-to-use magnetic fastener rounds off the full face helmet perfectly.

Highlights & Technologies:

MIPS BRAIN PROTECTION SYSTEM:
WHAT IS MIPS?
MIPS (Multi-Directional Impact Protection System) is a slip-plane system within the helmet. It is designed to rotate inside the helmet and thus slow down or reduce the impact energy acting on the brain, which helps reduce head injuries caused by rotational impacts.

WHY IS MIPS IMPORTANT?
When a head rotates quickly and comes to a sudden stop, the rotational acceleration may cause the brain tissue to experience high levels of strain. This stretching of the tissue caused by these motions may result in various types of brain injury. MIPS is designed with the intent to address rotational acceleration from impact.

HOW DOES MIPS WORK?
MIPS uses a slip-plane system that moves inside the helmet, mimicking the brain’s own protection system. This layer is designed to rotate inside the helmet with the intent to potentially slow down or reduce the amount of energy transferred to or from the head. Science tells us that if we can reduce the strains associated with rotational acceleration, we might reduce the risk and severity of brain injury.

ALL-IN-ONE INMOULD:
With the Inmould construction, the robust polycarbonate outer shell is bonded to the impact-absorbing EPS inner shell in a single operation while it foams. This makes the helmet even more resistant without adding weight. This production process also makes it possible to shape significantly better ventilation systems and vents. Inmould helmets are therefore lighter than traditional helmets and have significantly better ventilation systems. With the ALL-IN-ONE design, the EPS chin guard is also connected to the head protection in a combined unit. This process increases the strength of the structure while at the same time reducing weight and improving ventilation.

ERGOFIT ULTRA:
The headband system allows the helmet to be individually adjusted. The headband can be adjusted horizontally and vertically using the adjustment dial.

FIDLOCK:
Innovative, user-friendly closure system that combines the advantages of a magnetic buckle with those of a traditional fastener.
