*Helmets only.
Giro helmets are meticulously crafted with a combination of hands on development and machine made precision. Graphics are hand positioned and designed to molded grid templates for precise registration in the final production.
The Dome has one of the most advanced in-house R&D

the ideal helmet form.
and safety standards.
Having a facility like the Dome allows us to dream up, design, prototype, test, and develop new ideas on a daily basis.
THE DOME: OUR ON-SITE R&D FACILITY SANTA CRUZ, CA USA Giro benefits from having world-class resources. We’re based in the action sports wonderland of Santa Cruz, California, with endless singletrack trails, some of the best surf in America and dozens of ski resorts just a short drive away from the coast. In our headquarters — what we call the Dome — we have more than 50 test fixtures, several 3D printers, goggle testing equipment and an in-house wind tunnel. We even have a proprietary heat-sensing head form that we call the Therminator that is used to to validate vent locations and test cooling power. We geek out on the data churned out by these comprehensive tests, but it’s the ride that motivates us to spend long hours in the test lab. New Ideas to Enhance the Ride. We use these words often. Because for us, enhancing your ride (and, perhaps selfishly, enhancing our own) is the greatest motivator. And without our R&D facility (the Dome) our new ideas would never come to life.
MIPS
MULTI-DIRECTIONAL IMPACT PROTECTION SYSTEM
CAN PROVIDE MORE PROTECTION IN CERTAIN IMPACTS WHAT IS MIPS? The Multi-Directional Impact Protection System – a low friction liner that helps reduce rotational energy to the brain in an angled impact.
HOW DOES IT WORK? The MIPS System allows the helmet to rotate independently around your head, redirecting impact energy and providing more protection in certain impacts. Learn more at Giro.com/MIPS

ENGRAINED SWITZERLAND The Giro trip to Switzerland was a big hit for me last season! I had such a great time on and off the mountain with Drew, Ingrid, George, and Callum. It is always inspiring to see riders of that caliber shredding big terrain and getting to shoot with Adam Clark is always a treat. - Reine Barkered
DREW TABKE
Ingrid and I flew straight from Moscow after spending a month in Russia to come meet the Giro crew in Verbier. It was so awesome skiing in a bunch of different places this year. We came right into the FWT ender party. It was nice to eat some good food I remember‌ - Callum Pettit
I had so much fun on the Giro team trip to Verbier Switzerland last winter! The conditions were all over the place – rain, powder, 100mph winds. But the vibe amongst the crew was so full of positivity and motivation that we went out everyday regardless of conditions and crushed it, loving every minute of it. - Drew Tabke

WORLD RECORD BREAKING Joffrey Pollet-Villard I sent it in the pipe and I’m not gonna lie, a couple close calls scared the hell out of me. I wanted to make the record official. I didn’t go as big as I wanted this year, so we just decided to take a day and go huge, and I’m so stoked to have achieved this feat! - JPV
The Giro shoot in Tignes was crazy! It was the day after I won the last World Cup of the season and Joff was trying to set a new world record. I was still reeling from the nights celebrations, and watching him get after it the first day really set the tone for the trip and we ended up getting some really cool stuff done and Joff got the record too. - Mike Riddle

HELMET TECHNOLOGY KEY MIPS – MULTI-DIRECTIONAL IMPACT PROTECTION SYSTEM MIPS is a step forward in helmet design. There are three main components to a MIPS-equipped helmet: the interior foam liner, the Low Friction Liner and an elastomeric attachment system between them. In an angled impact, the elastomeric attachment system stretches to allow the foam liner to rotate independently around your head. The goal of this technology is to further reduce rotational forces.
CONFORM FIT TECHNOLOGY The fully integrated Conform Fit System utilizes a 2-piece shell that literally forms to the rider’s head shape by expanding and contracting with the turn of a dial. A truly adaptive design, it features a durable yet semi-flexible EPP construction that wraps around the head to provide the lowest-profile fit we’ve ever created and unsurpassed custom comfort.
IN-MOLD CONSTRUCTION In-Mold construction fuses a tough polycarbonate outer shell with the helmet’s impact-absorbing foam liner. The fusion process allows for better ventilation systems, making In-mold helmets lighter and cooler than traditional helmets.
SOFT SHELL CONSTRUCTION Soft Shell Construction combines a patent-pending, impact-absorbing liner made with Vinyl Nitrile (VN) and a unique flexible proprietary outer shell material for a durable and comfortable fit. This combination results in a helmet versatile enough to manage both high- and low-energy impacts.
HARD SHELL Hard Shell Construction produces great helmets at a great price. A rugged outer shell is molded and then attached to the EPS foam liner.
ROC LOC® 5 FIT SYSTEM This groundbreaking fit system provides unmatched comfort, stability, adjustability and weight savings. In addition to enhancing the fit and comfort of helmets, Roc Loc 5 allows you to easily custom tune the fit tension and the fore-aft tilt of the helmet in seconds using a single hand. And it’s almost 40% lighter than comparable systems too, making it the ultimate in skull-hugging luxury.
IN FORM 2 FIT SYSTEM The In Form 2 System is lighter and lower profile than the original, making it even easier to dial in a custom fit in seconds - even with gloves on. An improved dial design provides up to 6cm of adjustment plus enhanced stability while the vertical tuning feature accommodates different goggles and head shapes for a custom fit, free of gaper gap.
IN FORM™ FIT SYSTEM The In Form system makes it easy to dial in a custom fit in seconds - even with gloves on. An ergo-friendly dial at the base of the helmet provides up to 6 cm of adjustment and enhanced stability while the vertical tuning feature accommodates different goggles and head shapes for a custom fit, free of gaper gap.
AUTO LOC™ 2 FIT SYSTEM Auto Loc 2 is a simple, durable self-adjusting fit system designed to take the hassle out of fitting and wearing a helmet. By combining a supple elastic fit band at the back of the helmet with fixed-position straps, it automatically adjusts to cradle your head once you set the system to one of the three different circumference settings. A new vertical tuning feature helps dial in your fit and goggle set up.
FIT KIT™ PAD SYSTEM Our Fit Kit Pad System allows you to adjust the fit of your helmet in just a few seconds, without any tools. Simply choose the best combination of fit pads from the assortment supplied with the helmet, and swap them out to optimize comfort and stability. It’s fast, easy and allows you to customize the fit of the helmet without hassles.
FIDLOCK® MAGNETIC BUCKLE CLOSURE The pinch-free, one-handed Fidlock Magnetic Snap helmet buckle combines the advantages of two fastening concepts in a completely new way. Strong magnets make it easy to open and close while a secure snap functionality ensures a continuously high locking force.
THERMOSTAT CONTROL™ Thermostat Control Adjustable Venting control allows you to custom tune airflow instantly with a simple, low profile control button on the outside of the helmet. No other system is faster or easier to adjust, and nothing is more effective at keeping you comfortable.
STACK VENT™ Our Stack Vent was developed based on research showing the majority of the warm air that can cause fogging exhausts from the center top vent of the goggle. Aligning the Stack Vent in the helmet with the vent of your goggles helps to keep them clear and fog free while maintaining total helmet and goggle integration.
GoPro® CAMERA MOUNT INTEGRATION Our integrated GoPro® camera mounting system is stealthy, secure, and super easy to operate, allowing you to instantly deploy your GoPro® for filming the line or quickly pop it off and stash it for the hike. The GoPro® mount is offered on the Edit, Flare and Cipher S helmets.
X-STATIC® 99.99% pure silver is the secret ingredient that gives X-STATIC® the power to provide natural, permanent anti-odor and antimicrobial protection that keeps your helmet feeling and smelling fresh. This unique material also has temperature regulating properties to keep you performing at your best.
VERTICAL TUNING All Giro helmets with integrated fit systems feature Vertical Tuning. Vertical Tuning dials in how the helmets sits on your head for a perfect fit, eliminates gaper gap and creates a seamless lockup with Giro goggles. Roc Loc 5 and Auto Loc 2 fit systems boast On-The-Fly Vertical Tuning for tuning adjustments without removing your helmet.
SEAMLESS COMPATIBILITY For optimal performance of both helmets and goggles Giro products are designed to work together as a single integrated unit. Ensuring a seamless interface between helmet and goggles offers exceptional fit and dependable, worry-free function.
GOGGLE TECHNOLOGY KEY
SNAPSHOT - MAGNETIC INTERCHANGE LENS SYSTEM Our new SNAPSHOT – Lens Interchange System utilizes self-locating rare earth magnets and a secure locking mechanism for fast, on-the-fly (or on the chairlift) virtually effortless lens interchange. Upon contact with the frame, the lens simply snaps into place and then locks down securely. When the clouds roll in simply depress the shutter button, release the lens and insert the lens of your choice.
EXPANSION VIEW TECHNOLOGY Developed and perfected at the DOME, our R&D center in Santa Cruz, California, Giro’s groundbreaking Expansion View Technology (EXV) is a new frame design that creates an unparalleled field of view. We started with a helmet-compatible goggle design and then eliminated and tapered material from the frame and engineered frameless zones to optimize a massive spherical lens and yield maximum peripheral vision in our goggles.
