surfers, whitewater paddlers, kiteboarders, skydivers and
rescue service personnel, have benefited from Australian Ric Gath’s
lightweight, close-fitting headgear.
WHAT BENEFITS CAN YOU EXPECT IF YOU CONSISTENTLY
WEAR GATH WATER SPORTS HEADGEAR?

WHY SHOULD YOU CHOOSE GATH?
• Small and round size and shape to prevent “bucketing” or snagging.
Big helmets with hard “lips” or “peaks” can scoop water or grab rocks or reef.
• Maximum coverage, including lower cranium and ears.
• Face and eye protection is a big bonus!
• Light weight (wet or dry) reduces neck strain.
• Full peripheral vision with no blind spots.
• Helps prevent water from draining over your eyes when emerging from
water.
• Secure fit, including proper size and a buckle system that does not permit helmet
to become dislodged or displaced. (If it comes off, it's no good!)
• Appropriate materials and hardware like closed cell foam (does not absorb
water) and stainless steel (does not rust).
WARRANTY
3-year warranty against defects in materials and workmanship.
Warning: Wearing headgear offers some protection and may build confidence. However, it is no
substitute for common sense and may not prevent serious injury or death. GATH Headgear is not
recommended for use as a crash helmet on roads or highways. Gath recommends that the audio vents
be closed during any watersports action and that they be opened only at times when water pressure
induced ear injury is not a possibility and full audibility is desirable.
GATH ® GEDI CONVERTIBLE
Purpose designed
to meet the special
requirements of
extreme kayaking (white water and “creeking”),
extreme kiteboarding, rescue service personnel
using PWC’s, swift water rescue
services and others. Design criteria:
To provide the best coverage and
the most impact protection while
still maintaining the low-profile,
hydrodynamic shape required for high
speed water entry. We believe that
the Gedi will set the standard by which
all others will be compared. The Ribbed Peak
Visor is included with Gedi purchase!
