Ear plugs

When engaging in water sports like kitesurfing, windsurfing, SUP, or wingfoil, protecting your ears is essential. Ear plugs are specially designed accessories that prevent water from entering your ear canal while maintaining excellent sound perception. This makes them indispensable for avoiding discomfort and reducing the risk of ear infections, such as surfer’s ear. At EASY SURF Shop, you’ll find top-quality options like SurfEars 3.0 and SurfEars Junior, suitable for all ages and skill levels.

How to choose the right ear plugs

Choosing the right ear plugs depends on your activity and personal preferences. Modern ear plugs are made from durable, hypoallergenic materials to ensure comfort during long sessions on the water. Popular brands like SurfEars, EQ Seals, and Dakine offer innovative solutions tailored to different needs. Look for features such as:

• adjustable fit for all ear sizes,
• high-quality acoustic filters to maintain sound clarity,
• waterproof cases for convenient storage.

These features not only enhance comfort but also extend the lifespan of your gear.

How to use ear plugs

Using ear plugs is simple but crucial for maximizing their effectiveness. Insert them gently into your ears, ensuring a snug fit that keeps water out while letting sound in. This is particularly important in dynamic water sports environments where awareness of surroundings is vital. Always clean your plugs after each use to maintain hygiene and performance. Products like SurfEars Junior are specifically designed for young athletes, offering the same high-level protection as their adult counterparts.

Whether you’re a seasoned kitesurfer or a beginner paddleboarder, ear plugs are a must-have accessory. They are especially beneficial in:

• cold water conditions, where prolonged exposure increases the risk of ear infections,
• choppy or rough waters, which can force water into your ears,
• extended sessions, where comfort and protection are essential.
