I want to wear a helmet in surf, but don't want it on my deck or on my head the whole day. So I made myself a foldable helmet. It consists of 1 cm closed cell foam, from a camping-matress, covered with some very tough nylon fabric. Of course a hard helmet would be better, but at least this is a helmet I am prepared to take with me. It was a tough job for my sewing machine!
