Protect Your Brain. Skate for Life!

Falling is part of skateboarding. Protecting your head should never be optional!

What makes it different? S1's specially formulated EPS Fusion Foam is engineered to meet both multiple-impact skate helmet testing requirements and high-impact bicycle helmet standards. That means serious protection without sacrificing comfort or style.

Lightweight. Deep Fit. Dual Certified. Trusted by the Pros.

The Science Behind the Skate

At Surf Skate Science, we teach that understanding how your equipment works is just as important as learning to ride.

The S1 Lifer Helmet is a perfect example of physics, engineering, and material science working together to protect your brain.

Impact Absorption: EPS Fusion Foam is designed to compress and absorb energy during a collision, helping reduce the force transferred to your head.

Multiple-Impact Testing: Unlike non-certified soft foam skate helmets, the Lifer is tested to meet ASTM standards that include multiple-impact performance requirements.

Energy Management: By absorbing and distributing impact energy, the helmet helps reduce the forces your head experiences during a fall.

Because protecting your brain is the smartest science of all!

Why Helmets Matter at Surf Skate Science

At Surf Skate Science, helmets are required for all our skateboarding classes and activities, regardless of age or skill level.

We believe learning to fall, getting back up, and pushing your limits are important parts of skateboarding. But protecting your brain is always the priority.

Whether you're taking your very first skate lesson or have been skating for decades, a properly fitted, certified helmet is one of the most important pieces of equipment you can own.

Protect your brain. Keep pushing. Skate for life!

Always follow the manufacturer's instructions for sizing, fitting, inspection, and replacement. No helmet can prevent every injury. Replace a helmet after a significant impact, even if no damage is visible.
