Several rotation-damping systems for helmets have been introduced to better protect the brain from rotational forces. But these systems have not been evaluated in snow sport helmets. This study investigated two snow sport helmets with different rotation-damping systems, termed MIPS and WaveCel, in comparison to a standard snow sport helmet without a rotation-damping system. Impact performance was evaluated by vertical drops of a helmeted Hybrid III head and neck onto an oblique anvil. Six impact conditions were tested, comprising two impact speeds of 4.8 and 6.2 m\/s, and three impact locations. Helmet performance was quantified in terms of the linear and rotational kinematics, and the predicted probability of concussion. Both rotation-damping systems significantly reduced rotational acceleration under all six impact conditions compared to the standard helmet, but their effect on linear acceleration was less consistent. The highest probability of concussion for the standard helmet was 89%, while helmets with MIPS and WaveCel systems exhibited a maximal probability of concussion of 67 and 7%, respectively. In conclusion, rotation-damping systems of advanced snow sport helmets can significantly reduce rotational head acceleration and the associated concussion risk.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1007\/s10439-021-02723-0","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,2,2]],"date-time":"2021-02-02T19:07:31Z","timestamp":1612292851000},"page":"2805-2813","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1007\/springer_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":28,"title":["Impact Performance Comparison of Advanced Snow Sport Helmets with Dedicated Rotation-Damping Systems"],"prefix":"10.1007","volume":"49","author":[{"given":"Gina","family":"DiGiacomo","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Stanley","family":"Tsai","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-5076-4338","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Michael","family":"Bottlang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"297","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,2,2]]},"reference":[{"key":"2723_CR1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"2531","DOI":"10.1007\/s10439-020-02627-5","volume":"48","author":"AM Bailey","year":"2020","unstructured":"Bailey, A.
