The Surf Lid

The original design from Gecko Head Gear, the surf and watersports helmet keeps your head warm, comfortable and buoyant while you enjoy your favourite water-based activity.

The surf and watersports helmet was originally designed by Jeff Sacree’ for himself, so he would have something warm to wear on his head out in the waves and something to protect his head from rocks hiding below the surface. The stylish lightweight helmet was quickly adopted by other surfers, and soon became an essential piece of kit for bodyboarders, windsurfers, kitesurfers, wakeboarders, surf kayakers and even skydivers!

“I’ve been using Gecko helmets for the last few years now, for me it’s the ultimate surf helmet, it’s not only super comfortable and gives me extra confidence when the waves get dangerous it’s also compatible with the comms headsets I use on the biggest tow surfing days which is amazing for me and my safety team.”
