All ski resorts are now open and we can finally unpack our snow equipment. Perfect equipment includes not only clothing and Hardware , but also the right Helmet ! Of course you will learn from us what makes a good helmet and what you should pay attention to when buying:

SOME IMPORTANT FACTS
Since you move a lot not only when skiing but also when snowboarding, the helmet be well ventilated. Due to the constant movement, you start to sweat easily. But so that the steam and the heat that may arise, under the Ventilation slots are built into the helmet so that the air can escape perfectly. On some models, the ventilation can be adjusted using a slider. This can prevent any drafts that may arise.

Of course, with a helmet Hygiene must also be observed. It is important that every helmet the inner lining can be removed. This makes it possible to wash the inner lining of the helmet and to make it a little more clean. After all, the inner lining absorbs a lot of liquid during strenuous exercise, which could potentially lead to unpleasant odors.

To ensure a good fit, there are various fastening options. The most commonly used fastening is the “One-handed closure” . This closure revolutionizes the conventional snap closure. This “one-handed closure” is held together by two magnets and has a big advantage over the others: only one hand is needed to open it and what’s more – you can Keep your gloves on! …safety is also a top priority with this lock.

MAXIMUM SAFETY ON THE SLOPES
Research is continuously being carried out into the development of helmet construction! Therefore, the top priority is protection and safety! One of the most revolutionary technologies is definitely the Multi-directional impact protection system: briefly also MIPS which was developed by biomechanists and neuroscientists. Helmets with MIPS offer increased protection against impacts caused by forces acting on our brain and thereby reduce the rotation on our brain. Externally, you can equip a helmet with MIPS Helmet , hardly distinguishable from others. The only visible difference is a thin, yellow layer of material underneath the inner lining - however, this does not affect the comfort of wearing it. The MIPS layer only moves a few millimeters during an impact. In order to protect our brain as best as possible, however, it absorbs the impact in the event of a fall - this can reduce the risk of more serious injuries.

A correct fit of Helmet is therefore essential and an absolute MUST!
Under no circumstances the helmet should Pressure points cause or sit too loosely. Mostly the helmet worn for several hours and even the slightest pressure can lead to unpleasant feeling or even Pains Some models therefore have an adjustable interior, which, together with the BOA system, ensures a better hold. This system is adjustable and can be adjusted by yourself.

It is also important to note that the distance between the helmet and Snowgoogle as low as possible. This is important so that the wind is not perceived as unpleasant.

In terms of design, this season leaves nothing to be desired. It is best to look in the next Moreboards Store over!! …our motto for this winter: safety first
