The Alpina Banff Mips Ski Helmet is designed for freeride skiers tackling challenging terrain, offering superior protection and comfort. Its key benefit lies in the MIPS system, reducing rotational forces during impacts, alongside adjustable ventilation and a sustainable wool lining for all-day climate control. A potential caveat is the importance of precise sizing, as fit is crucial for optimal performance and protection.

Measure the circumference of your head one finger's width above your eyebrows. Refer to the size guide (S: 51-55cm, M: 55-59cm, L: 59-63cm) indicated on the helmet or product information.
MIPS (Multi-directional Impact Protection System) is designed to reduce rotational forces transmitted to the brain from angled impacts, potentially reducing the severity of head injuries.
The helmet features vents that can be opened or closed to regulate airflow and internal temperature, allowing you to adapt to changing weather conditions or activity levels.
Yes, you can wear thin headwear. However, ensure that wearing additional layers does not compromise the helmet's fit and security. Adjust the retention system accordingly.
The wool lining can be spot cleaned with a damp cloth and a mild soap. Allow it to air dry completely. Avoid machine washing or harsh chemicals.
Yes, the Banff Mips is built for demanding freeride terrain, including backcountry, due to its robust construction, MIPS technology, and protective design.
A hybrid shell construction typically combines different materials (like In-Mold and hard shell) in different areas of the helmet to optimize for durability, weight, and impact absorption.
Adjust the internal retention system. If the size is fundamentally incorrect, consider trying a different size based on your head circumference measurement.
Ensure the goggles are compatible. Try adjusting the helmet's position slightly or check the goggle strap for optimal integration with the helmet's goggle clip or retention system.
Re-adjust the internal retention system for a more secure fit. Ensure no accessories are loose inside the helmet.
Ensure the lining is clean and dry. The lavalan wool is designed for comfort, but individual sensitivities can vary. Ensure the fit is not causing pressure points.
Setup: The Alpina Banff Mips Ski Helmet comes ready to wear. The primary adjustment for fit is through the internal retention system, which can be fine-tuned for a snug and secure feel. Ensure the helmet sits level on your head, one finger's width above your eyebrows.
Compatibility: This helmet is designed for skiing and snowboarding. It is compatible with most standard ski goggles. Check for any specific goggle strap retention systems if needed.
