Skateboard & Longboard Helmets

Just one thing first: skate helmets are neither uncool, nor are they only something for beginners. A helmet protects you from serious injury and helps you get back on the board quickly after falling or having an accident.

Find the answer to your question:

• How are skate helmets different from bike helmets?
• How are skateboard helmets constructed?
• How do I find the right skate helmet size?

Protection for every skill set - skate helmets

No matter how long you've been skating - at some point you'll definitely fall. It's no secret that this causes your body a lot of stress. But with a skateboard helmet on your head, you can protect yourself properly.

As professional skaters show, wearing a helmet while skateboarding is totally normal. A helmet is mandatory equipment, especially when it comes to skating ramps. Rune Glifberg, Mike Valley, Tony Hawk, Lizzie Armanto, Bucky Lasek, Steve Caballero or Nicole Hause can certainly confirm this.

What are skate helmets made of?

Fits, looks good and protects - find the right skateboard helmet size

Of course, a helmet must fit properly to protect you in an emergency. As with shoes and clothes, the sizes of different helmet brands are unfortunately not standardized.

We created a size chart of the different helmet sizes broken down by head circumference so you can order the skateboard helmet that fits your head perfectly. The best way to measure your head circumference is to place a tape measure about one centimeter above your eyebrows and ears. All information can of course also be found in the product description of your desired helmet in the longboard and skateboard helmet online shop at skatedeluxe!

Skateboard helmets for everyone

While there are skateboard helmets marked specifically for women, the difference between those and "skate helmets for men" is only in the size or recommended head circumference. However, we recommend you buy a skate helmet that fits your head circumference regardless of your gender identity.

Skateboard helmets for kids are similar: the protection remains the same, only the sizes are smaller. Of course you can also order kids' skate helmets easily and conveniently in the skatedeluxe skate shop.

Skate safe and with style

Of course, you usually see experienced skaters skating without helmets. But the emphasis here is on "experienced". Style and image are often the reasons for this. But with the right graphics and a wide range of styles and colors, a skateboard or longboard helmet can be well integrated into your desired look. Therefore, you can always find the latest skateboard helmets from Ancore, Pro-Tec or TSG at skatedeluxe, which you can easily shop online.

A well-intentioned piece of advice on the subject of style: naturally, your helmet is only useful in an emergency if you fasten the chin strap while wearing it. If you are just starting to skate and generally need some tips about skateboarding, our guide will help you.
