I was bracing myself for the cost after reading this:

> With this design, the inner portion of the helmet is covered in ball bearings.

Somehow the cost is quite cost-competitive at $150, compared to a MIPS helmet which is literally just a low-friction plastic liner added onto the inside of an otherwise unchanged helmet.
