DMC fins / SOFT SURF HELMET™ SSH™ is a thermoformed headgear with peak and neck protector.
Made from non-porous NBR foam encased in nylon elastane the SSH™ is designed to protect reasonable impact in all extreme water sports conditions.
It’s super lightweight - weighing less than 100g and constructed to allow water flow and therefore will not balloon or try to remove your head if face planted in a wave; for example.

- Audio (hear waves)
- Buoyancy (float)
- Ear (protect)
- Impact (prevent)
- Heat (keep warm)
- Sun (off neck)
- Glare (flip peak)
- Visibility

We Say
You wouldn't think twice about wearing a helmet on a motocross bike, nor a race bike, and you likely wouldn't take on the Half Pipe without one either, why then have helmets been so ignored for Watersports use?
Wakeboarding, Foiling, Kiting & even Surfing allows you to reach speeds that a head on collision with water or another board or person can leave you with lasting damage & whilst not everyone wants to wear a cumbersome solid helmet in the water the potential danger should not be ignored because of that.
These 'soft' helmets provide a great level of protection from impact whilst still being lightweight & comfortable enough to not feel like they are interrupting your enjoyment.
Integrated sun protection within the design of these helmets offer an ideal solution to those long days surfing shallow reefs or carving long wind powered turns & I cannot recommend them highly enough for anyone looking to push their limits.
With surf line ups getting more and more crowded, these helmets should be on every parent's radar when sending their child out into the water.
