Finntrail · Head and neck protection
What should you wear under your helmet against dust and wind?
Finntrail head and neck protection for off-road riding means what covers your neck and face under the helmet, plus hats for when you stop. For summer dust there is the TUBE 9800 neck gaiter with UPF 50 protection, and for a cold day the RAVEN 9725 balaclava with a neoprene deflector. Most riders need TUBE 9800 first: it becomes neck protection, a bandana or a face mask when the rider ahead raises a cloud of dust.
How to choose, who it is not for, and FAQ
Who it is for
- •Riding in a group on dry gravel: you pull TUBE 9800 over your nose and mouth when dust rises from the rider ahead.
- •A long day in the sun: TUBE 9800 with UPF 50 covers the neck, which neither the helmet nor the jersey covers.
- •A cold day: the RAVEN 9725 balaclava with a fleece lining covers your face and neck down to the chest, and the neoprene deflector directs your breath downwards so the helmet visor does not fog.
- •Stops and the ride home: WATERPROOFHAT 9711 protects against the wind, while HAT WATERPROOF 9714 (membrane and fleece lining) keeps you warm on a damp, cold day.
How to choose
First decide whether you will wear it under a helmet or without one. Under a helmet a thin gaiter or balaclava fits, while the hats are for when you take the helmet off.
When you will wear it What matters most Models Under a helmet in summer Neck protection, bandana or face mask with UPF 50 against dust and sun. Universal size. TUBE 9800 Under a helmet on a cold day A fleece lining, windproof construction and a neoprene anti-fog deflector. RAVEN 9725 Without a helmet, when you stop A wind and damp resistant hat, and for deep winter one with a membrane and fleece. WATERPROOFHAT 9711, HAT WATERPROOF 9714 Who this protection is not for
- •Replacing a helmet. None of these products protects against impact.
- •A hot day in RAVEN 9725. The balaclava was designed for hard frost and snowmobiles; in summer it will be too hot.
- •Wearing under a helmet. Both hats, WATERPROOFHAT 9711 and the membrane HAT WATERPROOF 9714, are for time without a helmet: at stops, on the road and at leisure.
Frequently asked questions
Will the TUBE 9800 neck gaiter fit under a motocross helmet?
The Finntrail TUBE 9800 neck gaiter comes in a universal size and works as neck protection, bandana, face mask or thin hat all in one. Under a helmet it is usually worn as neck protection or a mask against dust.
How do I protect myself from dust when riding in a group?
Pull the TUBE 9800 neck gaiter up over your nose and mouth, and cover your eyes with goggles with a strap. That way dust gets into neither your airways nor your eyes, even if you are not riding first.
Why does the helmet visor fog up, and what can I do?
Warm exhaled air rises and turns into condensation on the cold visor. The Finntrail RAVEN 9725 balaclava has an integrated neoprene deflector that directs your breath downwards.
Does TUBE 9800 protect from the sun?
Yes, the neck gaiter has UPF 50 protection against UV rays. This matters for the back and sides of your neck, which stay exposed between the helmet and the jersey collar during a long day on the trail.
