Who Are Gath?
Gath Helmets began with a simple idea and a passionate surfer. Ric Gath, its founder, loved the ocean but faced challenges. Cold waves hurt his ears, and sun glare strained his eyes. One day, a surfboard fin nearly hit his young child. That danger inspired Ric to create a helmet.
He started in his shed, shaping the first prototypes by hand. He combined a wetsuit hood with a lightweight shell. The goal was clear: protect the head without slowing surfers down. In 1989, the first Gath helmet hit the waves. Surf legend Dave Macaulay wore it first at Margaret River. The helmet quickly captured attention. Top surfers, including Gary Elkerton and Tom Carroll, adopted it for competitions. Their victories brought worldwide recognition to Gath.
Early on, the helmets earned safety endorsements and design awards. The brand faced setbacks, including liquidation, but Ric reclaimed the rights and relaunched under Gath Sports. Today, it remains family-run and proudly Australian, based in Margaret River. The company focuses on surf safety, producing helmets for kayaking, foiling, stand-up paddleboarding, and more. Some models are certified for whitewater and canoeing.
Gath helmets balance protection with comfort. Impact-resistant, UV-stable materials form the outer shell, resisting corrosion and drying quickly. Internal liners absorb shocks, while neoprene headbands and foam pads keep wearers comfortable. Some models include removable ear covers, audio vents, and sun visors. Most weigh under 500 grams and fit snugly without blocking vision.
The brand is trusted by professionals and rescue organizations alike, including Surf Life Saving groups and coast guards. Gath helmets shield wearers from head injuries while protecting against sun and cold. Over decades, the brand has remained iconic. Surfers and paddlers alike personalize helmets with stickers and art. Vintage Gath helmets are now collector favorites.
Gath stands for safety, innovation, and Australian heritage. Its loyal fans span the globe, united by trust in quality and dedication to the sport. From a small shed to worldwide recognition, Gath Helmets remains a story of passion, ingenuity, and respect for the ocean.
