The Gecko Open Face
The Open Face helmet is the worlds first marine safety helmet. Gecko Head Gear first developed the Open Face marine safety helmet for the RNLI to fill a gap in the market for a lightweight, high-performance helmet that is suitable for use in marine environments. Since 1995 the RNLI have continued to use this helmet and have helped to refine the design. Today, the Gecko Open Face helmet is used by numerous organisations worldwide including the Royal Air Force, Police and MOD. It meets BSI marine safety helmet standard PAS 028:2002.
Gecko G1
The G1 new push pump system is located at the back of the helmet. Inflate the helmet using the push pump and release the air with the button, so you are able to achieve the perfect fit. This design eliminates the use for oral inflation, meaning the inflation and size of the liner is much easier to control and accurately sized to the users head.
