The only way to know for sure is for you to wear the GIRO and perform the crash all over again.
If helmets are considered to be safety equipment, then in my personal experience and anecdotally, poorly fitting equipment is more hazardous than it is beneficial. It doesn't matter if it's got the best technology and safety features if they can't be employed properly because of poor fitment.
My original point was to say that it's more important to wear the helmet that fits and is comfortable. The OP asked about a specific helmet and I provided my experience of that helmet. If Kask (or any brand) made a helmet with MIPS that fit comfortably, I'd wear it. As it is, I'm quite happy with my Mojito.
