Smith Optics Accel MIPS® Helmet
Smith Optics Accel MIPS® Helmet
Ready for anything, engineered for safety
Built with Smith’s in‑mold construction, the Accel merges a tough polycarbonate shell with EPS foam for low‑profile, high‑impact resistance. Inside, the dynamic duo of Zonal KOROYD® and the MIPS® system works tirelessly—crumpling to absorb energy and slipping to reduce rotational forces whenever the unexpected happens.
A fit that adapts as fast as your runs
From the first chair to the last, the helmet’s 360° micro‑adjustable dial keeps your fit dialed-in even mid-run. One-handed vents let you cool off without slowing down, while the Ionic+® lining keeps odors at bay—even when the turns get wild.
Comfort that syncs with your gear—and your playlist
Tailored to integrate seamlessly with Smith goggles, this helmet ensures proper airflow and fog-free vision. Removable ear pads shape your comfort, and its audio‑system compatibility (with Aleck® gear) means your soundtrack—or squad—stays locked in, even when the snow’s flying.
