A benchmark in watersports protection for more than three decades, Gath is now available at GONG with helmets designed to disappear on the water, but not when it comes to impact protection.
In surfing, wing foiling, kitesurfing or foiling, a helmet has become an essential piece of equipment. It needs to provide effective protection while remaining lightweight, stable and comfortable, without restricting vision or creating excessive drag in the water.
This is precisely the approach that has built Gath’s reputation. The brand develops helmets specifically designed for watersports, with compact designs that closely follow the shape of the head and provide excellent stability while riding and during crashes.

A helmet for every discipline
Each Gath model is designed for a specific program, with its own balance of coverage, lightness, comfort, impact protection and water drainage.
The NEO Hat prioritizes a minimalist feel and very low drag in the water, making it ideal for surfing.
The EVA Hat provides enhanced frontal protection while retaining a compact profile.
More versatile, the SFC is suitable for surfing as well as other watersports and features removable ear protectors.
Finally, the GEDI provides the highest level of protection in the range for more committed riding, particularly foiling, windsurfing and professional environments.

Protection that stays in place
Beyond certification, a helmet must above all fit perfectly. A secure fit limits movement during impacts and prevents the “bucket effect” caused by water rushing into an oversized helmet.
The different constructions and sizes offered by Gath allow you to choose a helmet suited to your head shape, discipline and level of commitment.
With Gath joining its partner brands, GONG expands its range of protective equipment with one of the leading names in watersports protection.
