How to measure your helmet size correctly: To find the right helmet size, measure your head circumference with a flexible tape measure.
It is important that the tape measure runs around the widest part of the head – only then will you get a correct result.
Place the tape measure at the front, about 1–2 cm above the eyebrows, and run it along the sides above the ears.
At the back, the tape must run over the largest part of the back of the head (not too low on the neck). The tape may run slightly at an angle – what matters is that it sits all the way around the largest points of the head.
Make sure the tape measure sits snugly but does not dig in. Measure 2–3 times for the most accurate result. You can then compare the measured value in centimetres (cm) with our size chart.
Tips for an accurate result
- Keep hair flat (e.g. do not measure over a voluminous hairstyle)
- Keep the tape horizontal, i.e. along the largest circumference
- Do not measure too loosely
- For values between two sizes:
→ usually choose the larger size (depending on helmet model / fit)
Important note on fit
The right helmet should fit firmly without causing uncomfortable pressure points.
A new helmet may feel a little tighter at first, as the inner lining adapts slightly over time.

For riders who want a helmet that works as hard on a Saturday morning run as it does commuting mid-week, the Shark Skwal Cup in Dark Shadow Dual Finish delivers ECE 22.06-certified safety, wind-tunnel aerodynamics and a full comfort package — all without asking you to break the bank or compromise on style.
Key Features
- ECE 22.06 certified — meets the latest European safety standard for road use
- Lightweight polycarbonate shell at just 1,587 g (±50 g), available in two shell sizes for a compact, proportionate fit across the size range
- Optical Class 1 visor — scratch-resistant, UV-protected and supplied with a Pinlock insert for fog-free vision in cold or wet conditions
- Integrated drop-down sun visor operated by a slider on the crown, operable with gloves on
- Alveotec interior lining — antibacterial, breathable, fully removable and machine washable
- Speaker pockets and spectacle-friendly cheek pad cut-outs make this an easy everyday helmet to live with
- Double-D retaining ring closure — the racing-proven fastening system trusted for its reliability
Aerodynamics and Ventilation
The Skwal Cup's shell was developed with aerodynamic stability firmly in mind. An integrated rear spoiler smooths airflow at higher speeds, reducing buffeting and keeping the helmet planted on long motorway stretches. The ventilation circuit pairs a top-crown intake and a chin vent with multiple rear exhaust ports, keeping fresh air moving across your head and preventing heat build-up during summer touring or sustained sport riding.
- 1x top-crown vent
- 1x chin vent
- Multiple rear exhaust ports for efficient airflow
A noise-reducing perimeter seal and chin curtain cut wind noise at the visor and lower shell, making the Skwal Cup noticeably quieter than many helmets in its class — a real benefit on longer outings.
Comfort and Interior
The Alveotec comfort liner is the heart of the Skwal Cup's everyday appeal. Soft against the skin, moisture-wicking and antibacterial, it keeps the interior fresh over high-mileage weeks. When wash day arrives, the full liner pulls out cleanly and goes straight in the machine. Cheek pad cut-outs accommodate most prescription spectacle frames without pressure points, while dedicated speaker cavities mean integrating a Bluetooth intercom system is straightforward.
A breath deflector fitted to the chin bar directs exhaled air away from the visor, working alongside the Pinlock insert to maintain a clear view in changeable weather.
Dark Shadow Dual Finish — Design Detail
The HE6500 Dark Shadow Dual Finish colourway layers deep black tones with a dual-finish surface treatment — the contrast between matte and gloss sections gives the shell a graphic depth that reads as genuinely premium at a glance. The aerodynamic profile reinforces the sportiness of the design without resorting to loud graphics, making it a versatile choice across naked bikes, tourers and sportsbikes alike. This is a 2025–2026 collection helmet, so the finish is current rather than a carryover.
