Follow wakeboard helmets are engineered for the specific impact profile of tow-sports — cable falls, boat sets, wake surf wipeouts and foil. Every Follow helmet uses a multi-density EVA shell, drainage vents, and a snug closure system that holds firm through inverts and full-speed sends.

The Truefit Liner — Follow's interchangeable comfort liner — fine-tunes the fit once you've chosen the right shell size. Run thicker pads for a smaller head, thinner pads as you dial it in. Available across the line from the entry-level Safety First helmet up to the flagship Follow Pro.

All wakeboard helmets sold by Follow in the EU are CE-marked under the relevant water-sports impact standard. Tested in Australia. Developed for the World.

Wakeboard helmet FAQ

How should a wakeboard helmet fit?

A wakeboard helmet should fit snug — no rocking forward, back or side to side when you shake your head. Measure your head circumference around the largest part (above the ears and brow) and use Follow's helmet sizing chart. The Truefit Liner system inside Follow helmets fine-tunes the fit once you have the right shell size.

Are Follow wakeboard helmets CE-certified?

Yes. Follow wakeboard helmets sold in the EU are CE-marked under the relevant water-sports impact standard. The multi-density EVA shell is engineered specifically for tow-sports impact (cable falls, boat falls, wake surf) rather than for bicycle or skate impacts.

Can I use a wakeboard helmet for wakesurfing and foil?

Yes. Follow's wakeboard helmets are designed for the full range of tow-sports — wakeboarding, wakesurfing and foil. The shell is vented for water drainage and comfortable for longer foil sessions, and the closure system holds firm during wake-park inverts and boat sets.

What's the difference between Follow's helmet models?

Follow's helmet line ranges from the entry-level Safety First (EVA shell, multiple colourways, lightest weight) up to the Follow Pro (Truefit Liner, premium construction, refined fit profile). All models share the same core impact protection — differences are in liner system, weight, and finish.
