Lightweight ABS Shell Helmet for Every Water Discipline
The WIP Wipper 2.0 is a durable water sports helmet for wing foiling, kitesurfing, sailing and eFoiling that protects through repeated falls. It is light for a hard ABS shell helmet and the most affordable of the three WIP models.
It is backed by Swiss quality: Franco-Swiss brand Forward WIP also equips racing teams in the America's Cup and SailGP. The hard ABS shell withstands knocks and scratches, while the multi-impact EPP core returns to shape after an impact.
The 360° micrometric dial gives you a precise fit, even on the water. A short visor shades your eyes from the sun, and two removable ear pads are included.
Who Is the WIP Wipper 2.0 For?
The WIP Wipper 2.0 is made for riders who want top-level protection, fall often and need one tough helmet for several disciplines.
We recommend it for:
- wing foilers learning take-offs and first turns
- kitesurfers and riders moving into kite foiling
- windsurfers and windfoilers
- eFoil beginners for safer first rides
- sailors on catamarans and fast dinghies
Comparison: Wipper 2.0 vs Wiflex Pro 2.0 vs Prowip 2.0
The Wipper 2.0 has a hard ABS shell and a short visor and is the most affordable of the three, built for everyday sessions and learning. The Wiflex Pro 2.0 suits riders who want the lightest, most compact helmet (around 170 g without ear pads). The Prowip 2.0 is the race helmet for high speeds, with In-Mold construction and a weight of 290 g.
WIP Wipper 2.0 Benefits
Protection after repeated falls (multi-impact EPP core)
EPP foam returns to its original shape, so one fall does not use it up.
Built for daily use (hard ABS shell)
The shell handles knocks, scratches and sand, which makes it a good fit for schools and rentals.
Precise dial adjustment (360° micrometric system)
Adjust the fit in seconds without taking the helmet off, so it stays in place when you fall.
Less glare (short visor)
The visor shades your eyes from the sun without blocking your view.
Warmer or connected (removable ear pads)
The ear pads protect on colder days and work with BBT audio and WiTalky systems.

Which Wipper 2.0 Size Should I Choose?
Measure your head circumference about 1 cm above the eyebrows and pick the size range it falls into. Compare other models among all water sports helmets.
After sea sessions, rinse the helmet with fresh water and dry it in the shade. In the box: helmet and two removable ear pads.
