Met Terranova Mips helmet

Terranova Mips - an ideal all-mountain / trail helmet

Terranova has increased head coverage compared to a standard mountain bike helmet. It's designed for aggressive all-mountain and trail riding. The construction and fit are inspired by the award-winning Roam, guaranteeing optimal comfort.

Met's team has worked closely with MIPS to achieve highly efficient ventilation and at the same time enhance the helmet’s safety features. Featuring the MIPS-C2® brain protection system, the Terranova is able to slide relative to the head in the case of a crash, redirecting damaging rotational motion.

Technology

MIPS Brain Protection

MIPS is a low friction layer inside the helmet which allows the head to rotate relatively to the helmet in an angled impact. This substantially reduces rotational violence and the potential for damage to the brain. Collaborating with some of the world's leading neurosurgeons and experts, MIPS® has established that when you fall, your head most often hits the ground at an angle, creating a rotational shock to the brain. This rotational shock can cause strain in your brain. A helmet with MIPS® absorbs much of that rotational energy, offering you better protection. And if, against all the odds, you do fall vertically onto your head, a helmet with MIPS® will protect you just as well as an ordinary helmet.
