Materials & Construction

Direct Ventilation

Direct Ventilation allows air to move through the helmet to help release heat and improve comfort. This matters on warm days, during repeated laps, or anytime you are working hard on the water.

Occigrip Fit System

Occigrip is Sweet Protection’s rear adjustment system. It helps fine-tune fit for a more secure feel, which improves comfort and helps the helmet stay in place in turbulent water.

Fit Pads

Included fit pads allow added customization for different head shapes and personal fit preferences. This helps create a more precise, comfortable fit for better all-day wear.

All-Round River Design

The Wanderer II is designed as an all-round river helmet for consistent use across varied whitewater conditions. It focuses on dependable comfort, practical ventilation, and durability for regular river running.
