Climbing is an interesting, but also demanding and dangerous hobby. That is why it is so important to take care of safety. On the one hand, sport is supposed to be enjoyable, make you happy, give you the opportunity to overcome your weaknesses, but on the other hand, remember that your health and life is the most important thing.

So remember about climbing helmets. In our offer you will find interesting models from reputable manufacturers such as Petzl and Climbing Technology. Each product coming off the production line must pass the appropriate inspection in order to be intended for sale. Manufacturers take care to ensure the least weight with the greatest possible protection for the head.

Helmets in this category can be built in different ways, but they will usually have many features in common. The first element that is very important for your safety is the foam inside the helmet. This is a foamed polystyrene that absorbs the shock of a fall or impact. It is important that the workmanship of this foam is of a good standard. The next element is the outer shell, which adds to the appearance and provides an additional layer of protection. It is usually made of polycarbonate or durable ABS. It is this layer that comes into first contact with falling rock debris. It is important that the plastic is durable and relatively flexible, so that it does not break easily. To ensure that the helmet holds well to the head, adjustable straps are used, which you fasten under the chin.

Many models also have the ability to adjust the inside to the circumference of your head. This uses a dial or adjustable straps. This will ensure that the helmet will fit your circumference. If you have the opportunity, however, it's worth trying it on and seeing how comfortable you feel in it.

Climbing helmets are very often equipped with vents to ensure air circulation at the right level - especially on warmer days in summer or spring.

Different models can have different shapes. There are those that will protect only the top of the head, but you will also find models that will protect the back, sides and front of the head. This is the concept that Petzl, for example, uses in its products and calls it Top And Side Protection. If you also care about other activities in which you will use such a helmet, then note that some models in our range are also CE certified for skydiving.

Helmets in this category are dedicated to climbing. They will protect you not only from falling rock debris. Remember that the low risk of crumbling rocks does not mean that you should not have protection on your head. Climbing helmets will also protect you from accidentally dropping something by your partner who is climbing behind you. It will also protect you from hitting your head directly on the wall when you stumble.

Climbing, however, is not the only use of products from this category. You can also successfully use them, practicing canyoning. This is a type of activity that involves crossing rushing rivers in the mountains. It is very important then to use a good, durable helmet, which will protect you from falling debris and, above all, protect you when you fall and hit the rocks.

No matter what activity you need helmets in this category for, remember that health is paramount. In this case, it is worth spending a little more money on proven products from reputable manufacturers.
