I'm Abigail Scott, an author, adventurer, and mother of three. When I'm not navigating the beautiful chaos of motherhood, you can find me tackling the turbulent waters as a professional whitewater kayaker or scaling impressive rock faces as a climbing guide. The rush of adrenaline, whether from kayaking or climbing, is a feeling I cherish deeply. But the thrill doesn't stop there; I capture the breathtaking allure of nature through my lens as a professional photographer. And when I'm not submerged in the wild, my software engineering skills amplify my outdoor pursuits, allowing me to harness technology in unique ways. Through my writings, whether articles or blog posts, I share not just my adventures but my heart, hoping to spark a flame of inspiration in others to break boundaries and experience the world's wonders.

Mod 5 Mips Helmet

Description

Why We Like The Mod 5 MIPS Helmet

Your head is one of your most valuable assets, so keep it covered in the lightweight Oakley Mod 5 MIPS Helmet when you charge through fresh powder or lap the park.

Not only is the Mod 5 stylish, but it also delivers high performance and comfort.

A hybrid construction keeps the weight of the helmet down while ear pads and the comfort liner are removable for even less weight or more ventilation on spring days.

The Mod 5 is equipped with a Multi-Directional Impact Protection System (MIPS) that enables a relative motion between the head and the helmet for more protection against rotational motion when you take a fall.

The helmet fits like a glove with the Boa fit system that easily adjusts with a turn so you don't have any helmet slop when you speed down groomers.

Finally, for ventilation and to help reduce goggle fog, the Modular Brim System (MBS) allows warm air to pass from your goggles, through the helmet, then out the top for maximum comfort.

  • Weight-saving helmet with comfort and style for days on the slopes
  • Hybrid shell design lowers weight without impacting performance
