Ultralight Compact Helmet for Wing Foil and Kitesurfing
The WIP Wiflex Pro 2.0 is a compact helmet for wing foiling, kitesurfing and dinghy sailing that weighs around 170 g without ear pads. You barely feel it, which makes it a strong pick for long sessions.
The multi-impact EPP core returns to shape after an impact, while the polycarbonate microshell keeps volume and weight down for a low profile with no extra bulk.
Two removable ear pads are included and work with the BBT audio system for communication on the water.
Who Is the WIP Wiflex Pro 2.0 For?
The WIP Wiflex Pro 2.0 is for riders who want head protection without a heavy helmet getting in the way.
We recommend it for:
- wing foilers on long sessions and learning turns
- freeride and freestyle kitesurfers
- dinghy and catamaran sailors
- windfoilers
- beginners who skip a helmet because heavier ones feel bulky
Comparison: Wiflex Pro 2.0 vs Wipper 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 Wiflex Pro 2.0 Benefits
You barely feel it (around 170 g without ear pads)
Low weight keeps your neck relaxed, even after hours on the water.
Protection after repeated falls (multi-impact EPP core)
The foam returns to shape after an impact, so one fall does not use it up.
Compact shape (polycarbonate microshell)
The thin outer shell reduces volume and keeps the profile low.
One-hand release (magnetic buckle)
The buckle opens quickly, even with wet hands.
Communication during training (BBT audio ear pads)
The included ear pads protect on colder days and accept the BBT audio system.
