Before paddling into whitewater or surf, be sure to have a kayak helmet for protection – it’s important to be prepared for any potential dangers!
Without a helmet, the biggest risk is simply tipping over and hitting stumps or rocks that are right underneath you.
A whitewater helmet is one of the most important pieces of kayak gear, so, you’ll want to invest in the best helmet available online. Shop now for a kayak helmet here!
The Three Different Types of Kayaking or Rafting Helmets
There are three main kayak helmet configurations available to stand-up paddlers, kayakers and rafters. The most common are open face whitewater kayak helmets that come in either half-cut or full-cut variations.
Half-cut rafting helmets sit above the ears providing good protection for the skull as well as good drainage.
Full-cut kayak helmets come down over the ears providing additional protection and insulation.
Full-face kayak helmets provide protection to the jaw and lower portion of the face, but sometimes don’t drain as effectively and can be uncomfortable on the ears in rough conditions. These whitewater helmets are more suited to experienced paddlers who need a great deal of protection.
