Why choose Gecko
We have been designing marine helmets for 30 years. We understand the different challenges that need to be met when designing a marine helmet. Our surf helmet is designed by surfers for surfers.
The surf lid has many key features that make it perfect for water sports.
-
Firstly, the surf lid is sleek, compared to many other surf helmets on the market it is not bulky and it kept compact to the head. The grooved design does not compromise its safety features, the helmet is made from fibreglass, so the shell provides an excellent strength to weight ratio.
-
The neoprene front paired with this compact design means the helmet doesn’t drag through the water and makes paddling and swimming just as easy as it would be without the helmet.
-
The inflatable liner inside the helmet is what provides our helmet with warmth and buoyancy. The pockets of air mould around your head to further that snug sleek design, they also trap the air to keep warmth locked in.
-
The holed inserts are designed to protect your ears from surfers ear. They are placed slightly above the ears so that the water does not penetrate straight in to the ear. The holes inserts allow for sound to be still be heard whilst providing protection
