POC Artic SL Mips

POC Artic SL Mips is a slalom helmet developed for competitive skiers who want maximum protection between the gates without compromising on fit or comfort. The helmet is designed for the stresses that occur in slalom and combines advanced protective technologies with smart solutions.

The helmet features a durable ABS shell together with an EPP core that can withstand repeated impacts without losing its protective properties. In addition, it is equipped with Mips Integra, which helps reduce rotational forces during angled impacts. To provide even better protection against recurring gate strikes, VPD inserts are also placed between the shell and the helmet's core.

The fit can be easily fine-tuned with the integrated 360° fit system, which ensures the helmet stays stable without needing to change or adjust the padding. At the same time, the ventilation can be adjusted according to temperature and intensity, so that you maintain a comfortable temperature during both training and competition.

The POC Artic SL Mips comes with the well-known Maxilla Breakaway Chin Guard, an adjustable chin guard developed for slalom skiing and designed to break away at the right load. Furthermore, the Fidlock® buckle makes it easy to open and close the helmet, even while wearing gloves.

In short, the POC Artic SL Mips is an obvious choice for competitive skiers looking for a modern slalom helmet with high safety, well-thought-out comfort, and protection adapted for intense skiing between the gates.
