Product details

The Switchblade MIPS is our new ASTM-certified downhill full-face helmet with a removable chin bar. The Switchblade is fully optimized for downhill and certified to CPSC, EN-1078, and ASTM-1952-DH standards – both with and without the chin bar. The chin bar is super easy to remove and just as easy to reattach. To remove it, simply press the buttons under the chin bar, rotate the bar upwards, and take it off.

The Switchblade MIPS features the new Roc Loc Air DH fit system, which is characterized by a cushioning coating around the adjustment dial. This prevents the helmet from accidentally adjusting when it comes into contact with a backpack or neck protector. Additionally, the helmet keeps your head cool. Without the chin bar, the Wind Tunnel cheek pad ventilation provides extra cooling.

The sleek design gives the helmet an aggressive look while providing ASTM-certified protection – even without the chin bar. The Switchblade MIPS is the ultimate choice for all downhill enthusiasts and the only helmet with a removable chin bar that is fully designed for downhill riding.
