Can One Helmet Cover Bike, Scooter and Skate?
Yes — but only when that exact model carries the approvals for each use. Fit comes first: measure their head and check the size range before comparing anything else.

Frequently Asked Questions of Multi-Sport Helmets
A multi-sport helmet is designed to protect kids during different activities such as riding bikes, scooters, skateboarding and other wheeled sports, offering versatile head protection.
Yes. Quality multi-sport helmets are safety certified and designed to meet standards for cycling and other activities, making them suitable for everyday riding.
Bike helmets are designed specifically for cycling, while multi-sport helmets are built to meet safety requirements across multiple activities like skating and scootering.
Measure your child’s head circumference and match it to the manufacturer’s sizing guide. The helmet should fit snugly without pressure points and remain stable when moving.
No. A multi-sport helmet is designed to provide protection across multiple activities, making it a convenient and cost-effective safety option for active kids.
Measure your child's head circumference with a soft tape measure, running it around the widest part of the head about two centimetres above the eyebrows. Match that measurement to the centimetre range on the size chart above rather than to their age. If a tape measure is not handy, wrap a piece of string around the head and measure the string against a ruler. Our kids helmet fit guide covers the full process, and every order is backed by our 30-Day Perfect Fit Guarantee.
Contact us within 30 days and we will arrange an exchange for the correct size. The helmet needs to be unused and in its original condition with all tags attached. Full details are in our refund and returns policy, so ordering the size the chart recommends carries no risk.
Yes. Helmet use is mandatory for cyclists in every Australian state and territory, and the helmet must comply with AS/NZS 2063. Every helmet in this collection is certified for bicycle use, and compliant helmets carry a visible certification stamp on the inside liner. Check for that stamp on any helmet you buy, from us or anywhere else.

Kids Multi Sport Helmet Size Chart — Which Size Does My Child Need
Most 3–5-year-olds need an XXS/XS helmet in the 45–52 cm range. Use the table and fit steps below to choose by age and head circumference, then narrow by brand.
Size Table:
| Age Range | Head Circ. | Recommended Model |
| 3–5 years | 45–52 cm | Globber Kids Helmet with LED Lights (XXS/XS) |
| 5–8 years | 50–56 cm | Triple 8 Lil 8 Dual Certified Youth Helmet |
| 8–12 years | 51–63 cm | Triple 8 THE Dual Certified Sweatsaver |
| 12+ years / adults | 60–64 cm | Nutcase Street (Blue Steel) with MIPS (Large) |
Four checks confirm a correct fit. Run all four before your child rides.
- Two-finger rule: the helmet sits two finger-widths above the eyebrow. Any higher and it exposes the forehead.
- V-strap check: the chin straps form a V shape just below each ear. Adjust the side sliders until the V sits snug.
- Shake test: your child shakes their head side to side and front to back. The helmet moves with the head, not independently of it.
- Roll-off test: push the front of the helmet backward. It should not roll off the head. If it does, tighten the retention dial.
A second-hand helmet fails these checks more often than a new one. Expanded polystyrene (EPS) liners compress on impact even when external damage is invisible. Always buy new. Better Health Victoria’s bicycle safety guidance for children covers why used helmets carry hidden risks: https://www.betterhealth.vic.gov.au/health/healthyliving/bicycle-safety-and-children
Are these helmets certified to Australian safety standards?
Yes, every helmet in this collection meets at least one mandatory Australian standard. The Australian Government’s mandatory bicycle safety standard, AS/NZS 2063, applies to all bicycle helmets sold in Australia. Confirm the current standard at the Australian Government Product Safety website
Triple 8’s Dual Certified helmets carry both ASTM F1492 (skateboard) and CPSC 1203 (bicycle) certifications. That dual stamp matters when a 10-year-old uses one helmet for the skate bowl on Saturday and the BMX track on Sunday. Some Australian schools require proof of AS/NZS 2063 compliance for excursion rides — a Triple 8 dual-certified helmet covers that requirement. The Hornit Kids Bike Helmet with LED Lights and the Globber Kids Helmet with LED Lights both target AS/NZS 2063 for bicycle use.
CALLOUT:
Check the inside liner before you buy. Every compliant helmet sold in Australia carries a visible AS/NZS 2063 certification stamp on the liner. No stamp means no legal compliance.
What does MIPS do and when does it matter?
MIPS — Multi-directional Impact Protection System — reduces rotational force on the brain during angled impacts. A standard helmet absorbs direct linear force. Most real-world falls hit at an angle, not straight down. The MIPS liner slides 10–15 mm on impact, redirecting rotational energy away from the brain.
The Nutcase Street (Blue Steel) with MIPS is the only helmet in this collection that carries MIPS technology, making it the strongest choice for road riding, commuting teens, and any rider covering mixed terrain at speed. For teens and adults riding on roads, browse the full adult helmets range
When should you replace a multi-sport helmet?
Replace any helmet after a single impact, even if external damage is invisible. EPS foam compresses on first impact and cannot recover its protective properties. Replace any helmet every three to five years regardless of impact history — UV exposure and heat degrade the liner from the inside. Check the manufacture date on the inside liner sticker and count from that date, not from the purchase date.
Triple 8 Multi Sport Helmets — Which Model Suits your Rider?
Triple 8 produces the only dual-certified multi-sport helmets in this collection rated for both cycling and skateboarding. Four models cover ages 5 through to adulthood.
- Triple 8 Lil 8 Dual Certified Youth Helmet — ages 5–10
The Lil 8 fits heads from 50–56 cm and suits primary-school riders who split time between a bike path and a skate ramp. The dual-certified shell meets both CPSC 1203 and ASTM F1492, and it comes in six colourways. This is the entry point for parents who want one helmet that covers every surface.
- Triple 8 Wipeout Dry Erase Youth Helmet — ages 8–12: The Wipeout ships with dry erase markers and stencils. Kids customize the shell themselves, which means they actually choose to wear it. It covers heads from 54–57 cm. Dual-certified for cycling and skating.
- Triple 8 Little Tricky Edition Kids Helmet — ages 5–10: The Little Tricky brings the same dual-certified shell in a compact fit with matte finishes and low-profile graphics. It suits kids who find bold branding annoying. Available in black, green, pink, and white.
- Triple 8 THE Dual Certified Sweatsaver Helmet — ages 10 to adult: The Sweatsaver is the adult-and-older-youth workhorse. The proprietary Sweatsaver liner absorbs moisture and reduces heat buildup during long sessions. The Signature Edition — black shell with holographic lightning-bolt graphics — ships in XS through XL, covering head circumferences from 51 cm upward.
Hornit and Globber helmets — LED visibility for younger riders
Hornit Kids Bike Helmet with LED Lights suits ages 3–8 in multiple colourways including unicorn pink and black. The integrated rear LED makes the helmet visible to drivers in low-light conditions — early morning school runs, dusk rides, overcast days. It meets AS/NZS 2063 for bicycle with colour options across six shell designs.
The Globber Kids Helmet with LED Lights fits heads from 45 cm (XXS) and suits children transitioning from a balance bike to their first pedal bike. The XXS/XS sizing (45–51 cm) and XS/S sizing (51–55 cm) make it one of the few helmets in this range that fits genuine toddler head circumferences. Globber does not carry dual-sport certification, it is a bicycle-specific helmet.
Does the helmet arrive assembled? What about delivery?
Every helmet in this collection arrives fully assembled, open the box, adjust the fit dial and chin straps, and it is ready to wear. Strap adjustment takes under two minutes. No tools required.
