TECHNOLOGIES:

* ENGINEERED COMFORT
HEAD SHAPE - Giro's proprietary headforms have been developed using a combination of precise head scans, meticulous fit studies, and worldwide aggregation of head size and shape data. Giro additionally uses scaled head shapes to match our Asian Fit Line.

HELMET DEPTH - The ideal depth of the helmet successfully combines comfort with complete coverage of the forehead, back of the head and ears. We achieve this through careful testing and 3D printed prototypes to ensure a perfect match in confrontation with low temperatures, high speeds and winds.

MIPS OFFSET - MIPS integration is considered from the very beginning of the helmet construction to ensure that the technology used does not affect the comfort of use. Our current line of MIPS equipped helmets offers such sophisticated integration that most users will never notice the technology is there.

* GIRO AUDIO ACCESSORIES BY OUTDOOR TECH - Chips ™ 2.0 wireless headphones feature one-touch control buttons and hands-free phone call functionality. Chips ™ wired headphones are a versatile wired model with easy-to-use controls (even with gloves on) and 10 hours of playtime. Both models feature 40mm full-range drivers and are proven to operate in temperatures down to -29 ° C.

* IN-MOLD CONSTRUCTION - In-Mold construction combines a tough polycarbonate outer shell with an impact-absorbing foam insert. The fusion process allows for better ventilation systems, making In-Mold helmets lighter and better than traditional helmets.

* IN FORM ™ FIT SYSTEM - The In Form adjustment system allows you to easily select the correct fit in seconds - even with gloves on. An ergonomic knob at the base of the helmet provides up to 6 cm of adjustment and increases stability. The vertical fine-tuning feature allows you to accommodate different goggles and head shapes to fit together without any unnecessary slack.

* MIPS EQUIPPED
PROVIDING MORE PROTECTION IN CERTAIN TYPICAL FALLS - We have spent many years working with MIPS designers. The technology was developed by scientists from the Karolinska Hospital and the Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm, Sweden. The concept is based on over two decades of research. Thanks to our extensive testing, we believe that helmets equipped with this technology provide an extra measure of protection in some common falls. We are pleased to offer MIPS technology on the entire range of Giro Snow helmets, from freestyle to All Mountain to Alpine Race and junior models.

The main components of MIPS equipped helmets are: 1. Inner foam insert, 2. Low friction liner and 3. Elastomeric fastening system. When applied at an angle, the elastomeric attachment system stretches, allowing the foam liner to rotate independently around the head.

* PERFECTING FIT
THE TOTAL IS MORE THAN THEIR COMPONENTS - Improving the fit is learning. It is the sum of parts of Giro's 30 years of experience in making helmets and a dose of black art. These are tireless hours of research and development at Dome, our world-class test lab in Santa Cruz, California. It's science, math and technology; all backed by fit development research, thousands of 3D scans of the head, and the inclusion of user feedback to ensure a perfect fit. The result is an accurate and consistent fit across all Giro helmet and goggle models, covering a variety of construction types, head shapes, sizes and fit systems. We call this continuous process our Formula for Perfect Fit, and it is this dedication that makes the Giro a leading choice worldwide.

* PRECISION PADDING
DESIGNING A LOWERING AREA - Giro lining is strategically placed and goes hand in hand with the shape of the head, depth 

helmet and MIPS system. The lining is positioned to keep you warm and breathable, and to conform to the helmet's ventilation systems and achieve uniform compatibility with the Giro goggles.

EARPHONE POSITIONING - The position of the ear cups is a key element for fit and comfort. Each model of Giro helmet is tested to achieve the perfect alignment of the ear muffs to provide the necessary warmth, comfort and airflow reduction, all without compromising the ability to hear your surroundings.

* SEAMLESS COMPATIBILITY
BETTER TOGETHER - Giro's helmets and goggles have been carefully designed and tested to work smoothly together as a unit. We consider all aspects of integration and functionality for a perfect fit, comfort and performance in snow.

GOGGLE MOUNT POSITIONING - Correct goggle mount location completes the Giro Pack. Easy integration of the goggles and helmet is essential for peak performance. Risks of poor attachment placement include: poor helmet fit on the head, impaired visibility, frostbite to the brain, poor venting and a gap between the helmet and the goggles.

* STACK VENT - Our stack ventilation is based on research showing that most of the warm air that can cause the windows to fog up comes out of the goggle's top center vent. Aligning the helmet's vent with the goggle opening helps keep it clear and fog-free.

* THERMOSTAT CONTROL ™
The Thermostat Control ventilation adjustment allows you to instantly fine-tune the airflow with a simple, low-profile zipper on the outside of the helmet. No other system is faster or easier to adjust, and nothing is more effective at keeping you comfortable.
