Why Choose a Bump Cap?

Many experienced foilers find themselves looking for something between wearing nothing and wearing a full helmet.

The Armstrong Bump Cap fills exactly that role.

It provides:

• Light impact protection
• Improved comfort
• Better ventilation
• Excellent visibility
• Reduced bulk
• Natural freedom of movement

For riders spending long hours on the water, that combination can make it the headwear they reach for most often.

Lightweight Impact Protection

Hidden inside the cap is a lightweight ABS protective shell.

This internal structure helps soften minor knocks and impacts that can occur during everyday foiling or surfing while remaining significantly lighter than a conventional helmet.

Because the shell is integrated into a normal-looking cap, many riders quickly forget they're wearing additional protection.

Integrated Ear Covers

One of the standout features is the integrated ear protection.

High-speed impacts with the water can place considerable pressure on the ears, occasionally leading to painful eardrum injuries.

The soft ear covers help reduce this risk while remaining comfortable and allowing good awareness on the water.

Designed for Visibility

The short brim has been carefully chosen.

It provides shade from the sun without blocking your view of:

• Your wing
• Other riders
• Incoming swell
• Landing zones during jumps

Maintaining upward visibility is especially important during wing foiling transitions and manoeuvres.

Secure, Comfortable Fit

The Armstrong Bump Cap features:

• Adjustable chin strap
• Adjustable rear strap
• Two sizes
• Lightweight polyester construction

This combination allows the cap to remain secure during crashes and high-speed riding without creating pressure points or discomfort.

Available Sizes

To choose the correct size, measure the circumference of your head just above your eyebrows using a flexible tape measure.

Who Is This Bump Cap For?

Ideal for riders who:

✓ Want lightweight protection.

✓ Find full helmets too bulky.

✓ Ride regularly in warm climates.

✓ Surf foil or wing foil.

✓ Value comfort and visibility.

Who Should NOT Buy It?

The Bump Cap is not intended to replace a certified watersports helmet.

We recommend a certified helmet if you:

✗ Are learning to foil.

✗ Frequently ride crowded locations.

✗ Train freestyle tricks with higher impact potential.

✗ Ride around rocks, reefs or obstacles.

✗ Require certified impact protection for competitions or local regulations.

For these situations, a properly certified helmet remains the safest choice.

Bump Cap vs Helmet

Choose the Bump Cap if:

You want lightweight protection with maximum comfort for everyday foiling.

Choose a Helmet if:

Maximum head protection is your priority or you're progressing through the early stages of the sport.
