Skateboard helmets

Skateboard helmets on offer at SportanoRiding a skateboard is an exciting sport that provides plenty of adrenaline and fun. However, as in any sport, safety should come first. A helmet is one of the most important pieces of protection when skateboarding. Not only does it offer protection from head injuries in the event of falls, but it also gives you a sense of confidence and allows you to concentrate on perfecting your skills without worrying about potential injuries. In the Sportano shop you will find a wide range of skateboard helmets from well-known brands such as Powerslide, Rollerblade, Micro, K2 and FILA.Helmet design: key components and their importanceSkateboarding helmets, like other sports helmets, are precisely designed to protect the wearer's head from injury. The key element of the helmet is its hard outer shell, which is designed to disperse the force of impact across the helmet's surface. The inner foam layer is responsible for absorbing and dampening impact energy, ensuring that the force is not transmitted directly to the helmet wearer's head. Many helmets additionally have adjustable straps and fastening systems to ensure the helmet remains stable on the head and fits properly. One of the most important elements of a helmet is the vents. In addition to their function of cooling the head while riding, they play a key role in ensuring continuous airflow, which eliminates sweating and overheating of the head. Many manufacturers are experimenting with the shape and positioning of these vents in order to achieve maximum performance while maintaining the structural integrity of the helmet.Materials and technology: innovations to guarantee safetyIn today's age, when technology is constantly evolving, the sports industry also benefits from modern solutions. Particularly in the field of protection and safety, innovative materials and technologies are becoming key to ensuring skaters' comfort and confidence when skateboarding. Helmets, as one of the main elements of protection, are a prime example of this. One of the most commonly used materials in helmet manufacturing is polycarbonate. This is a highly durable plastic that is also lightweight, making it ideal for the outer shell of helmets. The inner part of the helmet, usually made of EPS (expanded polystyrene), has the ability to absorb impact energy, protecting the head from potential injury. However, it is not just the materials that determine the safety of a helmet. Modern technologies such as the MIPS (Multi-directional Impact Protection System) bring about a revolution in head protection. The MIPS system allows a slight movement of the helmet in relation to the head at the moment of impact, which dissipates impact energy and reduces the risk of brain injury. Other innovative technologies concern ventilation and thermoregulation. Advanced ventilation systems, such as those based on ducts that conduct air throughout the helmet, ensure that the head remains cool even during intense exertion. It is also worth noting the anti-bacterial and anti-fungal coatings, which prevent bacteria and fungi from multiplying inside the helmet. This not only protects the helmet from injury, but also ensures hygiene and freshness. In conclusion, when choosing a skateboarding helmet, it is worth paying attention not only to its appearance, but above all to the materials and technologies that have been used in its production. Modern solutions ensure that the helmet is not only comfortable, but above all provides the highest level of protection.Fit and comfort: how to choose a helmet that will sits perfectly?Choosing a helmet that fits perfectly is the key to safe and comfortable riding. The first step in this process is to measure the circumference of your head. Many manufacturers offer helmets in a variety of sizes and the exact measurements can usually be found on the product label or on the manufacturer's website. In addition to size, it is also important to pay attention to the shape of the helmet. Not all heads have the same shape, so some manufacturers offer helmets dedicated to different head shapes. Another key element is the adjustment system. This often consists of chin straps and adjustment knobs that allow the helmet to fit precisely to the head. Internal padding and cushions also play a significant role in the fit. Not only do they provide extra protection, but they also add to the comfort of the wearer. Many manufacturers offer interchangeable liners that can be adjusted or replaced when they wear out. Another element that affects comfort is the materials used in the manufacture of the helmet. By choosing a helmet with breathable materials, you can ensure that your head stays dry and cool, even during intense skateboarding sessions. The right fit of a helmet is not just a matter of comfort, but above all safety. A helmet that fits perfectly will protect the head more effectively in the event of a fall, which is absolutely crucial for any skateboarder.
