Windsurfing with Nammu: High-Speed Protection That Stays Put
Windsurfing is a dance between the water and the air, but high-velocity winds and constant salt spray make traditional sun protection nearly impossible to keep on. Nammu was engineered for the “plane”—a secure, aerodynamic solution that protects your health while you chase the next gust.
1. Aerodynamic Security in High Winds
Traditional caps act like sails, catching the wind and flying off the moment you gain speed. Nammu’s fitted, bandana-style design creates a low-profile surface that the wind slides right over. The custom tie-back ensures that even during a high-speed wipeout or a heavy gybe, your protection stays exactly where you put it.
2. Protection from Above and Below
While windsurfing, you are constantly looking up at your sail—which often reflects UV rays directly back onto your face and scalp. Nammu provides a permanent UPF 50+ barrier for the areas most prone to “hidden” burns: the forehead, the ears, and the back of the neck. It is protection that doesn’t wash off with the spray or sweat into your eyes while you’re hooked in.
3. Seamless Helmet Compatibility
For those who wear helmets for safety in high-wind conditions, finding sun protection that fits underneath is a challenge. Nammu’s lightweight, seamless fabric adds no bulk, allowing your helmet to fit properly while providing an extra layer of comfort and UV protection for your ears and neck.
