Pro-Tec

Pro-Tec Helmets & Protective Gear

Founded in Southern California in 1973, Pro-Tec has been a cornerstone of action sports safety, transforming protective gear from a necessary precaution to an essential piece of skateboarding culture. Fast Times stocks Pro-Tec because they've consistently demonstrated that safety doesn't have to compromise style or skate-ability. Born from the early days of skateboarding, BMX, and surf culture, the brand has evolved alongside the sports it protects, creating helmets and pads that are engineered to withstand the most brutal impacts while allowing maximum freedom of movement. From their classic skate helmets that became iconic in the 1970s and 80s to modern designs that blend cutting-edge protection with street-ready aesthetics, Pro-Tec understands that true skaters know protection is part of the creative process—not a limitation. Whether you're a beginner learning your first tricks at a Melbourne skate park or a professional pushing the boundaries of what's possible on a board, Pro-Tec represents a commitment to keeping skaters safe without sacrificing the spirit of creativity and risk that defines skateboarding.
