WIP Long Peak Bump Cap "Surf Cap" Forward WIP

WIP Long Peak Bump Cap

The WIP Long Peak Bump Cap Surf Cap from Forward WIP delivers lightweight head protection with added sun coverage for foiling, sailing, winging and high speed watersports. Designed for riders who want impact resistance without the bulk of a full helmet, this low profile bump cap provides practical protection where comfort and visibility matter most.

The flexible internal padding absorbs minor impacts while maintaining a snug, comfortable fit. The extended peak helps shield your eyes from glare and sun, improving visibility in bright conditions and reducing fatigue on the water. A secure fit system ensures the cap stays firmly in place during movement, wipeouts and high speed riding.

Breathable and quick drying, the Surf Cap is ideal for warm conditions and extended sessions on the water. It is well suited to dinghy sailing, foiling and paddle based watersports where lightweight protection and sun management are essential.

A practical combination of bump protection and sun shielding built for performance on the water.

• Built-in lightweight protective shell—absorbs knocks from booms, masts, or rigging

• Breathable, water-resistant materials—stay cool, dry, and comfortable in all conditions

• Secure, adjustable fit—stays in place, even when the action heats up

Integrated D3O® Impact Protection

Forward WIP bump caps incorporate D3O® impact pads, a patented polymer material featuring non-Newtonian properties—soft and flexible in normal use, but instantly stiffening upon impact to absorb and dissipate energy. This advanced material is strategically embedded in key zones of the cap to protect against knocks from booms, masts, or other hard surfaces common in high-performance sailing and foiling environments.

Unlike traditional foams, D3O® offers superior impact absorption with minimal bulk, ensuring a low-profile, comfortable fit under helmets or hoods. CE-certified and field-tested, this cap is ideal for sailors, coaches, and shore crew demanding discreet protection without compromising mobility or ventilation.

From the racecourse to the coaching boat, the WIP Short Peak Bump Cap is the smart, stealthy way to add a layer of safety without compromising style or field of view.
