the icon - now with mips technology . the sandbox icon is the evolution of the popular legend helmet. it comes with a lightweight abs outer shell and eps liner. the patented airflow venting system ensures a pleasant climate, while removable ear pads and the padded chin strap provide comfort. mips (multidirectional impact protection system) is a system for protecting the brain. a low-friction layer in the shell allows a sliding movement of 10-15 mm in all directions. this reduces the rotational movements that can affect the brain on impact.the low profile then tops the icon with the right look.
