Tontron Adult Kayaking Wakeboarding Waterskiing Whitewater Helmet

Comfortable and visible in bright green. The padding and straps are made well and the helmet fits in a way that is secure and not restrictive. Despite my casual tossing of the helmet into and out of places, the outer shell has a durable gloss finish so it still looks new.

Ordered a Large Tontron, matte warm red helmet I am so very pleased. 1). I needed large helmet and this fit perfectly with the adjustable knob to tighten or loosen. I sometimes wear my hair down and other times, with a high ponytail. This helmet fit both ways, very comfortably. 2). The side straps are very adjustable. I adjusted the chin strap FORWARD, so it was AWAY from my neck and securely under my chin. Then I adjusted the length of the strap and neatly tucked away the excess in the chin strap pad. So neat and clean looking. I also adjusted side strap so that everything was symmetrical and neat. Once all that was adjusted to my face shape, I then turned the knob in the back of the helmet and I had the BEST, most perfect custom fit helmet. So I am very pleased and happy I made this purchase. Also, I like that you can remove the ear covers. My ears must be a bit large because the pressure from the helmet on my ears, was very uncomfortable. So I removed the covers altogether and then it was the most perfect, comfortable helmet. The appearance is perfect. I am pleased with the color. Matte warm red which looks more orange-red or Coral and it’s pleasing to the eye. I wanted to be easily spotted and this color is perfect for me. I think with the hard shell, I am well protected. And love the soft cushion padding on the inside. Excellent air/water vents. Took the time to write this because for me this was a great find!!!

I use this helmet for wing foiling and in my opinion you get a great level of protection for a cost that is a bargain compared to some of the other aquatic helmets. My helmet has already absorbed a direct contact with the foil and probably saved me a very expensive trip to the hospital. Materials seem to be good quality and I like that the helmet adjusts because it allows me to fit a brimmed hat underneath the helmet without sacrificing a good fit. As with anything used in salt water, I wash mine off after each use in freshwater when I rinse my wetsuit and other gear

Runs a bit small. Some adjustability, may or may not work depending on your head shape. Relatively lightweight.

This will be the third helmet I bought, the first two will need to be returned. The Retrospec Dakota was sized way too small, I could not get past the top of my head. The outdoor master was ridiculously large, and quality wise, It was very thin flexible, and would not trust my head in it if I ever to hit a hard object. I am very happy with the quality of this helmet, and the fit, which is very accurate. As previously stated this helmet is not the most comfortable, but I have ordered helmet padding to add to it, and should be just fine.

I often have a hard time finding helmets that will fit my big XL head, but this one is great.It's very comfortable and I'm looking forward to adding the Salamander visor to it, that I ordered at the same time.The only thing I did to the helmet was to remove the ear covers. I like to be able to clearly hear my VHF radio and sailing buddies when on the water, and I'm concerned the covers might hinder that a little.Fortunately they pop right out.Now I don't have to worry about the boom splitting my head open during an accidental jibe.I also like that it covers so much of my skull and should be good for shading my head from the sun, while the vents keep things cool.I'll edit this review after I've had a chance to use it on the water.

Fits well without ear pads and looks great. with ear pads installed ears touch but it is still wearable. I will keep but continue to seek the perfect helmet for myself, paying more if needed. Edit. This helmet saved my life and after you get used to it, you forget you are wearing it.stars. quickly. 5 stars.

I've used this helmet for slalom waterskiing and it has protected my head very well during wipeouts. I did have a question and reached out to Tontron's Customer Service, and they responded very quickly and helped with what I needed. Highly recommend the Tonton brand.
