REKD Protection Helmets and Pads for Skateboards, Stunt Scooters and More
REKD Protection is a brand built around one core principle: keeping riders safe without compromising on comfort or style. Whether you are just starting out on a skateboard or you are a seasoned stunt scooter rider hitting ramps at your local skate park, having the right protective gear is every bit as important as the equipment you ride. REKD produces a comprehensive range of helmets, knee pads, elbow pads and wrist guards that are designed specifically for action sports, offering the kind of durable, well fitted protection that riders of all ages can rely on session after session.
The REKD range at SkateHut covers protection for a wide variety of disciplines, from skateboarding and stunt scooters to longboarding, BMX and roller derby. Each product is engineered with both performance and practicality in mind, using quality materials to absorb impact while remaining comfortable enough to wear throughout a full day of riding. Whether you are shopping for yourself or buying protective gear for a younger rider who is just getting to grips with their first skateboard or stunt scooter, REKD offers a range of sizes and styles to suit every rider.
Do I need to wear a helmet when riding a skateboard or stunt scooter?
While helmet use is not always legally required in the UK, it is strongly recommended for all riders regardless of age or ability. Skate parks frequently require helmets to be worn on site, and they provide essential protection against head injuries during falls. REKD helmets are designed to meet the demands of skateboarding and stunt scooter riding, offering a comfortable and secure fit for both casual and more committed riders.
What protective gear does REKD make?
REKD produces a full range of protective equipment including helmets, knee pads, elbow pads, wrist guards and pad sets. Their products are designed for a range of action sports including skateboarding, stunt scooters, longboarding, BMX and roller derby, making them a versatile choice for riders who participate in multiple disciplines.
Are REKD products suitable for children?
Yes, REKD offers protective gear in sizes suitable for younger riders. If your child is learning to ride a skateboard or stunt scooter for the first time, a well fitted REKD helmet and pad set is a sensible investment that gives both parents and riders added confidence and peace of mind.
What is the difference between a skate helmet and a standard cycle helmet?
Skate helmets such as those in the REKD range are specifically designed to handle the kinds of impacts common in skateboarding and stunt scooter riding, including multiple lower impact falls rather than a single high impact collision. They typically feature a more rounded shape with greater rear head coverage, and are certified to relevant safety standards for action sports use. It is always worth checking that any helmet you purchase is appropriate for your intended sport.
