Product Information

Full details

The Gatehouse Junior Jockey Skull is designed for young equestrians who require a highly durable, kitemarked protective headpiece that meets rigorous international safety standards. It offers the key benefit of superior impact protection combined with an AEGIS Microbe Shield lining to keep the helmet fresh and hygienic over time. A notable caveat is that it is a traditional skull cap design, meaning it does not include a fixed peak, which some riders may find different compared to standard everyday helmets.

FAQs

Is this helmet approved for Pony Club events?

Yes, the Gatehouse Junior Jockey Skull is approved for use under all competition rules, including The Pony Club.

What safety standards does this helmet meet?

It conforms to PAS 015:2011 and VG01 standards.

Does the helmet come with a carry bag?

Yes, every helmet is supplied with a padded storage bag to protect it during transit.

How do I keep the lining clean?

The lining is treated with the AEGIS Microbe Shield, which naturally resists odors and bacteria. For general maintenance, keep the lining dry and clean with a soft, damp cloth if needed.

Can I attach a peak to this skull cap?

This is a traditional jockey skull design; it is intended to be worn without a fixed peak, though you may wear a compatible hat silk over the top.

How often should I replace the helmet?

You should replace the helmet immediately after any significant impact or if the outer shell shows signs of damage or excessive wear.

Troubleshooting

Helmet feels unstable or rocks on the head

Adjust the three-point harness straps to ensure a tighter, more secure fit around the jawline.

Harness straps are twisted or uncomfortable

Loosen the straps entirely and lay them flat against a surface to untwist, then re-thread through the sliders to find the optimal length.

Lining shows signs of staining

The AEGIS shield helps prevent this, but the lining can be lightly wiped with a damp cloth if necessary; do not use harsh chemical cleaners.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Certified to high-level safety standards (PAS 015:2011 and VG01)
  • Antimicrobial lining technology provides long-lasting hygiene
  • Suitable for official Pony Club competitions
  • Secure three-point harness ensures a snug, stable fit
  • Includes a high-quality protective storage bag

Cons

  • Lacks a fixed sun peak, which may not suit all aesthetic preferences
  • Specific to junior head sizes
  • Requires proper measurement to ensure safety efficacy

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure maximum safety, the helmet must fit snugly without being uncomfortable. Before use, adjust the three-point harness so that it sits securely under the chin. The helmet should be stored in the provided padded bag when not in use to protect the outer shell from accidental impacts or scratches, which can compromise the integrity of the material. Avoid leaving the helmet in direct sunlight or extreme temperatures, such as inside a hot vehicle, as this can degrade the protective materials over time. If the helmet is involved in a significant impact, it must be replaced immediately, regardless of whether there is visible external damage.
