Three easy notes to follow

Skateboard helmets are essential for anyone who wants to ride safely and have fun. They protect your head from serious injuries that can happen if you fall or crash. But how do you choose the right helmet for you? Here are some tips to help you out.

Fitment: 

First, make sure the helmet fits your head snugly and comfortably. You don't want it to be too loose or too tight. A good way to test the fit is to shake your head from side to side and up and down. The helmet should stay in place and not move around.

Safety:

Second, look for a helmet that meets the safety standards of your country or region. Different places have different requirements for skateboard helmets, so check the label or the website of the manufacturer before you buy. Some common standards are ASTM, CPSC, and CE.

Style:

Third, pick a helmet that suits your style and personality. There are many colors, designs, and features to choose from, so you can express yourself and stand out from the crowd. You can also customize your helmet with stickers, decals, or paint.

Make it yours:

Fourth, take care of your helmet and replace it when needed. A helmet can last for several years if you use it properly and store it in a cool and dry place. However, if you notice any cracks, dents, or damage, you should get a new one. Also, if you have a hard impact or a serious fall, you should replace your helmet even if it looks fine. The inner foam may be compromised and not protect you as well.
