POC Coron Air MIPS Fullface helmet L (59-62cm) actinium pink/uranium black matt

The ideal companion for a day in the bike park

The Coron Air MIPS is engineered to provide all-day protection for peak performance. The helmet was developed according to POC's Whole Helmet Concept™ to offer the highest level of comfort, fit and performance, optimized for all-day use.

Features such as optimized ventilation channels ensure that airflow is maximized at both low and high speeds, making the helmet an ideal choice for enduro rides. The full face helmet has been updated with the MIPS protection system and offers improved protection against rotational forces in the event of an impact.

The helmet's specially shaped ear chambers are designed to minimize the negative effects on balance and hearing that can be associated with wearing a full-face helmet. A fiberglass shell and EPP liner ensure impact resistance, durability and light weight.

Developed in collaboration with POC Team athletes Martin Söderström and Robin Wallner, the Coron Air MIPS offers reliable protection that the pros trust.

Technologies used

In this chapter we explain the technologies that the manufacturer uses in this product.

MIPS
The MIPS® safety system was developed to provide additional protection for helmets in numerous accidents. In certain impact situations, the MIPS system can reduce dangerous forces that might otherwise be transmitted to the helmet wearer's head.

1. Conventional helmets are designed and tested for a straight impact. In most cases, however, the impact is at an angle, which can cause rotational movements for the head.

2. This rotational movement can cause brain injury.

3. The low-friction shell is designed to help reduce rotational movement of the head in certain cases of angled impact.

Straight impact - oblique impact

The brain is typically more sensitive to rotational movement than linear movement because it has a shear strength similar to that of water or gel. When rotational movement causes different parts of the brain to move at different times, the tissues can be stretched, causing concussions or other brain injuries.

Rotational motion is a common cause of concussion and more serious brain injury from an oblique impact to the head. The MIPS system consists of a low-friction shell that is fixed inside the helmet. The low-friction shell is designed to slide slightly inside the helmet in the event of an accident, allowing forces to be directed away from the head. It is said to help reduce the risk of brain injuries.

Most conventional helmets are designed for a straight impact, but in most cases the impact is at an angle. The low-friction shell can reduce the rotational forces of an oblique impact.

Security system with the brain as a model

Unlike conventional helmets, which are primarily designed and tested for a straight impact, the low-friction shell of the MIPS system mimics the brain's own protection system against rotational movement. The cerebrospinal fluid is our natural defense system that allows the brain to move offset to the skull.
