Short Cut Helmet

When you’re only paddling mellow rivers, or just starting out, you still need a helmet — but you don’t necessarily need the burliest one on the market. That’s where the Predator Short Cut comes in. It offers reliable, certified protection with a lightweight, low-profile design that keeps things simple and comfortable. The Ralvek® thermoplastic shell is tough enough to handle unexpected knocks, while the closed-cell foam liner provides soft impact absorption without soaking up water. Twelve vent holes improve airflow, and included foam plugs can block them out when needed. A three-point PD3 dial adjuster locks in a secure fit without the faff of extra foam pads, making it quick and easy to get the right sizing. If you’re a cost-conscious paddler who needs a helmet now, the Short Cut gives you adequate protection without weighing you down or blowing the budget.
