Triple 8 Deep Cover Certified Helmet | Mike McGill

Triple 8 Deep Cover Certified Helmet | Mike McGill

The most comfortable certified helmet in the world — now wearing a legend's colours.

Triple Eight teamed up with vert skateboarding icon Mike McGill to create a Signature Edition of their flagship Deep Cover helmet. McGill's legendary Skull & Snake graphic — one of the most recognised images in skateboarding history — is applied to Deep Cover's already impressive platform: the deepest-fitting, lowest-profile certified helmet Triple Eight has ever built, with technology 30 years in the making.

At the core of Deep Cover is the patent-pending Hidden Hinge system — a mechanism that auto-flexes inside the helmet to cradle the base of your skull and achieve a fit that no other helmet comes close to. The Luxe-Lock Liners wrap the occipital region in three densities of precision-shaped foam covered in sweat-wicking fabric. Then there's the FIT KIT — an included set of 17 liners and shims so you can dial in your exact fit regardless of your head shape.

From the outside it looks like a classic skate helmet. From the inside it feels like nothing else you've worn.

Size Guide

Measure the circumference of your head starting in the middle of your forehead. Match it to the sizes below.

Pro Tip: If your measurement falls at the upper end of a size range or between sizes, size up. For example, if you measure 54cm, choose S/M. Triple Eight's experience shows that customers consistently do better in the larger size.
