WIP Surf Bob Bump Shell – sun protection with bump protection

WIP Bump Shells are not helmets but bump caps certified to EN 812: they reduce the effect of small bumps and knocks and protect against minor cuts and scrapes. The flexible shell is inspired by nature – its shape and structure are based on scallop shells, which offer exceptional strength at low weight (biomimicry).

The Surf Bob fully shields your head and face from UV rays. The SunBrim has a reinforced front peak that makes duck diving easier, and a rear double adjustment with 360° elastic system keeps it in place. The ear protection guards against wind, splashes and cold, and the low weight keeps it comfortable on long sessions.

Ideal for light sailing and board sports – pumping, downwind, parawing, windsurfing and kitesurfing – as well as for coaches, lifeguards and sailing instructors.

Note: Bump Shells are certified to EN 812 and do not replace a water sports helmet certified to EN 1385. For freestyle, high speeds or obstacles, WIP recommends a helmet.
