A helmet is definitely one of the most important protective gear you must wear when riding a scooter.
Head protection is absolutely essential whether you regularly ride in a skatepark or just on your way to work or school. Even the best scooter riders in the world know that falls are part of the sport and that injuries can lead to being out of action for several weeks or even months. Wearing a helmet on a scooter also gives you confidence when performing new tricks and jumps.There are many elements that differentiate scooter helmets from traditional bicycle helmets. Scooter helmets are designed to protect mainly the back of the head compared to traditional bicycle helmets. Scooter helmets are also resistant to multiple impacts, which means they can withstand many minor impacts without needing to be replaced. Helmets marked with EN 1078 certification are also approved for skateboarding, rollerblading, and cycling.
Scooter helmet should definitely be lightweight and comfortable, and of course, it should provide you with excellent protection. The helmet should fit well on the head without wobbling and without having to make any compromises at the expense of comfort. Modern helmets are designed to be comfortable and are equipped with foam padding. Many models also have additional padding that you can remove, allowing you to customize the helmet perfectly to fit.
Before purchasing a helmet, it is of course important to properly measure your head to find your optimal size. With a proper helmet for a freestyle scooter, you will always be safe.
Measure the circumference of your head just above the ears and eyebrows. The helmet should sit low, horizontally on the head, and should not be tilted.
You can choose from classic helmets as well as helmets with adjustable sizes (ideal for young riders who are still growing). Choose from a wide range of colors, sizes, and designs. Everything from top brands on the market, such as SFR, Rekd, Chilli, Pro-Tec and many others.
