help K2 Reverb MIPS FAQ
What does MIPS stand for in the K2 Reverb helmet?
MIPS stands for Multi-Directional Impact Protection System. It is an interior low-friction layer designed to move independently from the outer shell, reducing the rotational forces on the brain during an angled crash.
What kind of construction does the K2 Reverb helmet use?
The K2 Reverb utilizes a hybrid shell construction. This combines a tough, durable hard shell on the top of the helmet with an in-mold, lightweight construction on the lower half to perfectly balance protection and weight.
Can you listen to music while wearing the K2 Reverb helmet?
Yes, the K2 Reverb is explicitly designed with integrated audio channels specifically meant to accommodate drop-in headphones. This allows skiers and snowboarders to easily listen to music while keeping their ears warm and protected.
How do you adjust the fit on the K2 Reverb MIPS helmet?
The helmet features K2's standard dial fit system located conveniently at the back of the head. By turning this dial, users can easily tighten or loosen the internal harness to ensure a snug, custom fit over a beanie or goggle straps.
