Great Hat!

Great hat, very comfortable to wear and has a high quality to it. Brim doesn't fold down in wind and easily dries out.

Bangproof 💥 Bucket hat helmet

Firstly I would like to say what a fantastic experience dealing with Northern Water Sports. 10/10…
Adam at NWS being the sole supplier of BangProof hat helmets meant that I had the pleasure of dealing with him and obtaining my new bucket hat helmet. I wanted to replace my Mystic Vandal helmet with something more stylish, more comfortable and have full protection as equal to my Mystic helmet or if not better. Bangproof provided this in all aspects and I can’t fault it. Beautiful design ordered in the Khaky colour way providing full protection from impact or bright sunlight whilst looking as cool as on and off the waves. The comfort and fit are equally as impressive, but out of the box you might not think so? Make sure you read the blurb before shoving it on your head otherwise you might think you’ve bought the wrong size. Basically leave you new BangProof to acclimatise and become more supple (I left mine in the sunshine for a bit) and then popped it on my head. Once on I moulded it to my head shape and that’s where it has formed. Now it fits like a glove and doesn’t wobble about like my old Mystic and the best part is the kids say it looks “slay” so I’ll take that even though I had to ask what it meant? It’s a good thing trust me….What a great product and one you should be looking at purchasing as there is a Cap or Bucket style and looking good on the water is one thing, but staying safe is what it’s all about. Bangproof and Northern Water Sports allow you to do both. Summer is here so get your Bucket or Cap BangProof helmet and shred hard knowing that you’re fully protected from the sun and hard knocks.

Bangproof is bang tidy

Great helmet upgrade on my gath. Firstly looks so much cooler, but is more comfortable and the brim shadows you from the sun. Great no nonsense service from NK

Bangproof bucket hat/helmet

First thing the service from northern water sports is second to none great prompt communication and managed to get a the bangproof bucket hat to me in time for a trip away 👍👍
Second the bangproof bucket hat is a well made comfortable helmet and having a xl head and finding it difficult to find a helmet that actually fits with out pressure points has been impossible until now 👍👍 I would highly recommend seller and product and wish both huge success !!

Well what can I say.....? All I did was buy a BangProof Bucket hat from Adam at Northern Water Sports (5 star review left previously about the hat and about the overall experience buying from NWS) that led me to wanting to buy more kit. I decided that the service provided previously and the knowledge given on the kit (unbiased opinion) was the reason I purchased my new F-One Rocket V4. My new Rocket was the last one available from F-One and Adam made the call in order to secure it and get it on the courier service that afternoon. Great service, knowledge and helpfulness without any pressure. Now what about those new F-One V5 Swings😮

Leviathan PRO 1060

Very impressed with my new 1060 which has become my go to front wing for most conditions.
Having progressed within the Sabfoil range from W1100 to begin with, then to W945 allrounder; I treated myself to the 1060 which I have found to be faster, more manoeuvrable, with a fabulous glide.
Its great fun in the waves off West Kirby and New Brighton.

Great Product and service

I purchased a pair of neoprene car seat covers to replace old ones and wasn’t disappointed. Good quality, easy to fit and ideal for providing protection of the seats. The anti slip backing is a gem and the fit is excellent. The process from point of order to delivery was very good although the system did generate follow up emails when left in basket. This was explained to me when making telephone contact with polite and friendly staff. Thank you.
