MOTOCROSS HERO: MX-9 offers protection and durability to protect the rider's head from the harshest of off-road conditions.
Durable polycarbonate shell, MIPS impact protection system, adjustable visor, VFV (Velocity Flow Ventilation), and removable, washable anti-microbial liner.
With all of these features packed into one helmet, the MX-9 is a great performer at a great price.
Dirt Freak's official products are supplied with special fitting pads to improve fit and hold of a helmet.

[SCIENCE IN MOTION]
MIPS (multi-directional impact protection system) Technology in which the slip plane helps to dissipate the impact of rotational energy.

■WHY IT'S IMPORTANT
When the head is subjected to a rotational (oblique) impact, the rotational acceleration places a large burden on the brain tissue.
This may result in various types of brain damage.
Helmets with MIPS technology provide effective protection against this specific impact.

■HOW IT WORKS
Rotational Energy Management
The "slip zone" in the impact liner moves slightly between the layers of the inner layer, reducing the direct impact and consequently the amount of rotational energy transmitted.

[TIME IS EVERYTHING]
Bell engineers have spent more than 60 years studying the forces involved in collisions in a variety of scenarios.
Recent studies have concluded that brain damage caused by angled impacts is more severe due to the greater burden placed on the brain tissue.
MIPS copes with this impact by sliding independently of the helmet by only a few millimeters.
At this moment, the movement of the brain in the skull can be suppressed and the burden on the brain caused by angular impact can be reduced.

[THE MINDS BEHIND MIPS]
MIPS AB was founded in 2001 by Hans Peter, a graduate of the Royal Institute of Technology in Sweden, and three other experts in the field of biomechanics.
He has extensive and in-depth knowledge of head and neck injuries through his research on injury prediction and simulation of head and neck injuries using advanced data methods.
