The helmet chosen by Kamil Tatarkovič for his backcountry expedition to Ethiopia. Great for long mountain crossings, enduro races and local trails. Despite its very compact shape, it offers extensive neck protection, and is also equipped with MIPS (Multi-Directional Impact Protection System) technology, which can provide increased protection in certain types of shocks. The fastening system is the same as in racing helmets: Roc Loc Air, which offers perfect forehead ventilation. Montara is fully compatible with motocross goggles, POV Plus shield is adjustable with clearly defined positions. A safe holder for a Go-Pro camera is a matter of course.

VENTILATION: 16 holes, Wind Tunnel ™
FEATURES: POV ™ Plus adjustable label, hydrophilic linings

MIPS IS MOVEMENT
progress in the development of bicycle helmets
All Giro helmets are designed to absorb as much energy as possible in the event of an impact and meet the applicable European standard: EN 1078. The aim of the new MIPS technology is to eliminate the rotational forces acting on the head in the event of a fall. When impacted at any angle, the MIPS system allows the EPS shell of the helmet to rotate independently around the rider's head. Although this movement is only on the order of a few millimeters, we believe that MIPS technology significantly reduces the amount of rotational force that could otherwise be transmitted to the brain.
WHAT IS MIPS (Multidirectional Impact Protection System) and how does it work?
MIPS is a slippery insert between the EPS shell (helmet body) and the inner liners. In the event of an angle impact (for example, when you catch your head on a branch), the EPS shell of the helmet rotates a few millimeters along the MIPS layer, thus protecting the head and brain from a sharp rotating jerk.
