You're probably not thinking about how your Smith Women's Vantage MIPS Helmet looks, feels, or protects your head when you're skiing pow, but you can rest assured that it does all three damn well. For starters, Smith equipped this helmet with a Multi-directional Impact Protection System, more commonly known as MIPS, that uses a thin inner layer that rotates ever so slightly in order to disperse impacts across the whole helmet instead of the point of contact.
