Designed for demanding riders, this helmet is the culmination of GPA's patented "4S" technology, offering uncompromising safety at all times without sacrificing comfort or style. Every component, curve, and material used has been carefully chosen to push the boundaries of safety, ergonomics, and reliability for all your equestrian activities. To select the ideal model, compare the riding helmets that best suit your needs.
Multi-faceted protection for unmatched safety
Where most helmets settle for a standard structure, the GPA 4S Speed Air TLS changes the game with its exclusive four-layer design. This innovative and functional architecture is engineered to dissipate and absorb impact energy progressively and extremely efficiently, across the entire skull surface:
- Outer Shell in Injected Polymer: As the first barrier, it stands out for remarkable rigidity and its ability to deform upon impact. It provides effective protection against penetration, direct blows, and impacts with sharp or pointed objects, thereby limiting the transfer of energy to the lower layers.
- High-Density EVA Foam: Positioned as the second layer, this foam absorbs and distributes a first portion of the shock waves, significantly reducing the force transmitted to the internal layers. Its high density ensures optimal protection even during repeated impacts.
- Internal Shell in Glass-Fiber Reinforced Injected Polymer: Serving as the main structural support, this next-generation shell doubles the protection against penetration and significantly increases the overall stability of the helmet. The fiberglass reinforcement boosts its mechanical strength while maintaining the lightness needed by the rider.
- Expanded Polystyrene (EPS) Liner: The final line of defense, this insert absorbs and disperses any residual energy, protecting the skull and reducing the risk of injury. Its custom design guarantees a precise, snug fit around the head.
Advanced technology and compliance with the highest standards
The 4S Speed Air TLS Blue Helmet represents the excellence of French engineering by GPA. Every layer and component is the result of extensive research aimed at exceeding today's riding protection standards. The 4S ("4 Shields") technology delivers a unique synergy between energy absorption, shock dispersion, and lateral compression resistance—a rare and essential feature for rider safety. The TLS system (Ten Lock System) firmly locks the helmet onto your head, while allowing fine adjustment thanks to an easy-to-use secure buckle, guaranteeing perfect fitment in the event of a fall or sudden movement.
Compliant with the current European regulations for personal protective equipment, this GPA helmet meets all testing protocols in terms of impact resistance, dimensional stability, and support under extreme conditions, so you can ride with confidence and reliability.
Ergonomics, custom fit, and all-day comfort
Wear your helmet all day long and forget it's even there: that's GPA’s promise with the Speed Air 4S TLS Blue. Every aspect of its interior and exterior has been designed for enduring comfort and optimal ventilation:
- Enhanced Ventilation: Large air channels through the shell promote dynamic airflow, reducing sweating and efficiently evacuating heat. No more discomfort or overheating, even during the most intense sessions.
- Hypoallergenic and Removable Liner: The inner band is soft to the touch and antibacterial, fully removable for easy washing and impeccable hygiene, season after season.
- Customizable Finishes: Choose your style: glossy navy blue for a stunning elegance or matte finish for a subtler, more contemporary look. The standard-size visor adapts to all head shapes, offering effective protection from sun and weather without blocking your field of vision.
- Freedom of Movement and Optimal Retention: The helmet molds perfectly to your head thanks to an intelligent EPS foam liner, and the rigid chinstrap ensures a secure hold during any movement or jump—all while making it easy to put on.
The GPA 4S Speed Air comes in a wide range of sizes (53 to 61) to fit every rider, ensuring a precise and stable fit whatever your discipline.
