Built on the same platform as Bell's legendary Full-9 Carbon, the Full-9 Fusion offers the same advanced protection and comfortable fit, but uses a premium fiberglass shell rather than carbon in order more→to hit a more wallet-friendly price. Offering a wide field of view, airy ventilation, a plush interior, and MIPS technology, this helmet delivers no-nonsense performance whether we're racing the clock or launching gaps at the bike park.

We clip on the Capitan MIPS Helmet for our big wall pursuits. The low-profile suspension system cradles our head for all-day comfort. If our climber dislodges a hold while we're on a hanging belay, th more→e EPS puck helps absorb crown impacts, while the MIPS technology fights against rotational forces from off-center collisions.

Style meets ventilation for total comfort in all-mountain applications in the new Smith Session MIPS Helmet. This all-new cranium coverage keeps your noggin on lockdown with a combination of Smiths Ko more→royd technology and MIPS, shielding you from impacts both direct and oblique, so you can charge through rowdy rock gardens while staying ventilated as you weave your way through technical switchbacks to the top for round two. And Smith doesn't hold back on the good looks either, with a modern and sleek style that falls neatly between the previously loved Rover and Forefront, giving just a little more coverage than its cross-country cousin, but with less bulk than the enduro-ready Forefront.

We can stay upright at messy race starts and expertly dodge stray pebbles, but who knows what rush-hour motorists will do, so we strap on the Express Helmet before commuting to work. With an in-mold c more→onstruction, this dome protector keeps it low profile for a streamlined look while riding around town.

Updated to have an even greater value, the Wanderer II Helmet offers greater protection at a lighter weight and price. It features the same systems, which have always made it extraordinary but with sh more→aved weight to stop that heavy-headed feeling from bogging us down in the rapids.

The Tectal Race MIPS Helmet has been a favorite of ours for years now, providing us with a comfortable, airy feel on the trail while keeping us protected from the occasional tumble or low-hanging tree more→branch. For the latest version of the Tectal Race, POC phases out its SPIN technology in favor of an integrated MIPS system developed specifically for POC helmets. This sheds some weight while still offering protection against rotational impact forces.
