Reliable protection for confident riding
The GPA Global Gala First Lady TLS retains the complete technical construction of the Global First Lady TLS, providing a high level of protection while remaining lightweight and comfortable. Its construction combines durable materials and a multi-layer structure that effectively absorbs shocks to protect the rider’s head in the event of an impact.
- Thermo-composite resin outer shell: injection-moulded to create a strong and resistant shell that helps limit the risk of penetration or deformation in the event of a fall.
- Expanded polystyrene (EPS) inner liner: this material absorbs and distributes impact energy to reduce the risk of head injuries.
- EN1384:2023 certification: this helmet meets the latest European equestrian safety standards.
This technical construction ensures optimal shock absorption while maintaining a lightweight design for maximum comfort.
Twin Lock System (TLS): enhanced safety and stability
The Global Gala First Lady TLS helmet features the Twin Lock System (TLS), a patented rigid chin strap developed by GPA to improve helmet stability and safety. This innovative system combines two rigid straps positioned on each side of the chin to ensure precise and balanced support.
- Optimal helmet stability: the TLS system reduces unwanted helmet movement while riding.
- Balanced force distribution: the dual rigid straps provide improved stability and consistent positioning.
- Enhanced protection: this system contributes to greater overall safety in the event of a fall.
Thanks to this technology, the helmet remains securely positioned even during intense effort or sudden movements.
