Did you know that on average, swimmers train more than any other sport at every athletic level. A3 Performance breaks down training schedules from age 6 up to Olympic swimmers - reporting "a full Age Group practice can be anywhere between 2-4 miles per day."
If you've spent any time on the pool deck you know the danger zones;
congested practice and warm-up lanes
backstrokers who miscount their arm strokes and hit their head at the wall
circle swimming gone bad
No coach or parent wants to see their swimmer out of the water or hurt from an injury when they have access to Hammer Head.
According to Swimming World Magazine, every year 500,000 head injuries result in a doctor visit.
This is why we invented the revolutionary new Hammer Head® that raises the bar and takes swim caps to a whole new level. With its patented cushion inside the cap combined with a smooth exterior surface and seamless design make it 50% safer, up to 10.5% faster and 100% more durable than flimsy latex or silicone caps.
The Hammer Head® Swim Cap is designed for daily practice, during meet warm-ups, and at competitive races. Worry not, if your team is sponsored by a major manufacturer we won't steal their thunder! Your athletes can double cap to enjoy the benefits of a comfortable, drag free surface with Hammer Head.
You can also put your team logo (up to 6-colors) on your Hammer Head caps and take advantage of bulk order discounts.
Hammer Head is SWIMMER & COACH APPROVED, SWIM MOM CERTIFIED and OLYMPIAN ENDORSED!
I have personally seen countless head strikes when on the pool deck over the years. If it is not swimmer collisions in busy warm up lanes, then it is head hits at the wall in the backstroke. As Age Group swimmers get stronger and faster they don't change their arm count at the 5 meter flags and that is when we see more head injuries. I think Hammer Head is a clear WIN for the sport!
