FAQs

Q: How long will my kid fit in one size?

A: Most kids stay in one Neo MIPS JR II size for 2-3 winters thanks to the wide adjustment range of the In Form Fit System and Vertical Tuning. Helmets should be replaced after any significant impact or every 5 years regardless of fit.

Q: Is this covered by the Junior Trade-In Program?

A: Yes, kids helmets are part of the Junior Trade-In Program along with skis, snowboards, ski boots, snowboard boots, and bindings. Bring it back when your kid grows out of it for trade-in credit toward their next helmet.

Q: Why pay more for MIPS on a kids helmet?

A: Kids are statistically more likely to take angled falls because they're still developing balance and risk awareness. MIPS protects specifically against the rotational forces that cause concussions in those crashes. For most parents the upgrade is worth it for the first ski helmet on.

How to Measure Your Head

Using a soft tape measure, wrap it around your head about 1 inch above your eyebrows. That measurement in centimeters is your helmet size. Most helmets run in S/M/L/XL with size ranges printed on the box. If you're between sizes, size up and use the fit dial to snug it down.

MIPS Technology

MIPS (Multi-directional Impact Protection System) is a low-friction layer inside the helmet that allows the helmet to rotate slightly on impact, reducing rotational forces on the brain. We recommend MIPS for most skiers and snowboarders - it's especially valuable for kids and those who take big falls.
