Features

  • Composite EPP foam, EPS foam puck and polycarbonate shell construction enhance durability
  • Rotational motion can cause brain injuries; with MIPS, a low-friction layer slides 10 to 15mm in all directions, reducing rotational motion to the brain during impact
  • Low-profile suspension system offers a comfortable fit
  • Integrated clips make it easy to securely attach a headlamp (headlamp not included)
  • Removable, reversible hook-and-loop pads add customizable comfort

Imported.

To find your size, position a tape measure just above your ears and about 1 in. above your eyebrows. Keep the tape level to measure the circumference around the largest part of your head and then find the corresponding size in the Technical specs info.

Best climbing helmet
This is such a good climbing helmet. Fits well and has mips. Just wish they had more colors. The shell gets really hot in the sun.

Thin Liner Cracking after about 20 days of use
This is a very expensive helmet compared to others available. But it is among the lightest and is reportedly the safest with MIPS. I'm never aware of it being on my head. It is close fitting and doesn't restrict my vision in any direction, The fit adjustment is a bit fussier than the Petzl knurled knob requiring frequent removal of the helmet until the right fit is found. And after two weeks in San Vito lo Capo, Sicily I agree with others that the black color is too hot. The big issue I have is that after less than about twenty days usage the yellow liner is cracking in several places. It is cracked completely through in one spot and, with each use, seems to develop another crack. At the rate the yellow liner is deteriorating the helmet will soon lose its MIPS ability and the padding attached to it.

Fits large

Seems like this is a helmet that is lightweight and well ventilated but cannot use as the fit is too big for me. The size range indicates my measurements (54-55 cm) to be within parameters, however, it slides forward over my eyes when cinched down to minimum. Would work in winter while wearing a beanie but I want a helmet for all seasons. MIPS technology has been in use with ski and bike helmets but is limited in number of climbing helmets available at this time. I am returning the BD Vision MIPS and looking to try others in the hope of a truer fit.

Nice helmet

No complaints on this helmet. Super comfortable and it has MIPS tech in it. I wear it all day long and have no issues with it. It’s black but I haven’t had any issues with it feeling hot on my head. Great company and great helmet.
