Description
Description
The Forward WIP Wi Flex Helmet is all about keeping head protection as light and unobtrusive as possible. If you dislike heavy helmets, or simply want something you can almost forget you are wearing once you are on the water, this is where the WIFLEX concept makes real sense. At around 170g without ears, it is one of the lightest options in the wider foiling and sailing space. That makes it especially appealing to riders who want something cleaner and less intrusive for freeride winging, foiling and higher-mobility sessions.
Where It Sits in the Forward WIP Range
In the Forward WIP range, the Wi Flex sits at the ultra-light, stripped-back end. It is lighter and more minimal than the Forward WIP PRO WIP 2.0 Helmet and Forward WIP Wipper 2.0 Helmet, but it is also more focused on light feel than full-featured extras. If you like the WIFLEX platform but want a bit more equipment around it, the Forward WIP Wi Flex Pro Helmet or newer Forward WIP WIFLEX PRO 2.0 Helmet are the logical steps up.
Why Choose the Forward WIP Wi Flex Helmet?
- Very low weight makes it easier to wear for long sessions without neck fatigue.
- Multi-impact EPP construction is a strong match for active foiling use.
- Zone flex shell helps the helmet sit more naturally on the head.
- Minimal bulk suits riders who hate the enclosed feel of heavier helmets.
- A good option for riders who value freedom of movement as much as protection.

Helpful Reading & Buying Advice
FAQs
Who is the Wi Flex best suited to?
It suits riders who want the lightest, least obtrusive helmet feel possible and do not need the more built-up features of some other models.
How does it compare with the Wi Flex Pro models?
The standard Wi Flex is the more stripped-back option. The Forward WIP Wi Flex Pro Helmet and Forward WIP WIFLEX PRO 2.0 Helmet add extra features and a more foiling-specific package.
Is lighter always better?
Not for everyone. Many riders love it, but some still prefer a slightly more substantial helmet feel. That is why Forward WIP offer both WIFLEX and more traditional shell options.
