DETAILED DESCRIPTION
Fit & Feel
You'll feel the secure fit the moment you adjust the 360° Fit headband. It wraps your entire head to eliminate pressure points at the front. On the water, that means less slop when you're pumping or taking a wipeout, giving you a more stable feel without having to crank the strap down. We suggest adjusting it gradually to dial in the perfect balance of hold and comfort, especially if you wear glasses or a thin hood.
Sizing and Adjustment
The helmet comes in two sizes, S/M and M-L, to fit most riders. The 360° system provides quick, precise adjustment around the entire circumference, not just at the back. If you're between sizes, go larger for wearing with a thick hood or earplugs, and smaller for a snugger fit with no extra bulk.
Construction and Safety
The shell uses EPP Double Impact Protection technology, designed to take multiple hits without losing its protective qualities. The ear pads are removable so you can dial in your ventilation and comfort. CE EN 1385 and CE EN 1077 B certifications guarantee a level of protection you can trust for watersports. The build clearly focuses on durability and safety rather than chasing the absolute lowest weight.
On the Water
At the spot, once you've dialled in the 360° headband, the helmet is so comfortable you'll forget it's there. It minimizes shifting and wobble while riding and distributes pressure evenly to prevent hot spots, even during a crash. The removable pads give you the option for better hearing or more wind protection, depending on the day's conditions.
Care & Maintenance
Rinse your helmet with fresh water after every session to get rid of salt and sand, and let it air dry out of direct sunlight. The pads can be removed for a gentle hand wash. Always inspect the headband and straps, and if you see any damage or deformation after a major impact, replace the helmet immediately to stay protected.
Buying Advice
Pick your size based on your head measurement and whether you'll wear a hood or beanie underneath. If you're between S/M and M-L, think about the gear you usually wear. We always suggest trying it on with your typical setup to nail the fit. You're looking for a snug, comfortable feel that won't shift around during your session.
