Boardsox Surf Bump Insert for Bucket Hats

The Boardsox Surf Bump Insert is a removable rigid shell that drops into the crown of your Boardsox bucket surf hat, adding structure and taking the sting out of a knock.

Rigid ABS outer, EVA foam cushioning. The ABS spreads the force of a knock across a wider area and the foam absorbs what comes through. It is low profile and light, so the hat still wears like a hat and you can paddle in it without noticing it.

Tested to EN812:2012, the European standard for industrial bump caps. That standard covers knocks against hard objects. It is not a surf helmet standard, and this is not a surf helmet. It helps with your own board, a fin, a stray board in a crowded lineup, shallow sand and reef. It will not make heavy surf safe. If you need a helmet, buy a helmet.

One size, shaped to sit inside your Boardsox bucket surf hat. It lifts straight out again when you just want the hat. Full specs, sizing, warranty and shipping are in the tabs below.
