Product Information

So, having used the new SurfEars 3.0 earplugs, the main question is – would I recommend them to you guys? Yes, without question.

With more than three decades of combined experience as enthusiastic surfers and product makers, our team embodies a unique fusion of water sports passion and professional expertise. We draw from a wealth of knowledge in product design, engineering, and water-based pursuits to infuse every innovation we craft. The SurfEars allow you to still be able to hear clearly, as they allow air and sound to travel through, and just prevent water ingress, so safety in hearing instructions from the boat or your buddy is not compromised. These plugs fall out easily in any surf conditions, meaning not only will you spend the majority of your session with your ears exposed to the elements, but you are introducing waste to the oceans.

I considered what are the most important aspects for my earplugs. Style is not really an important issue here – earplugs do not need to look cool, but they need to be comfortable and they need to work for you. I, therefore, have judged a number of earplugs primarily on the following elements. After experiencing painful ears after surfing and other watersports over the last few years, especially in the winter, and having struggled with painful ears and infections, I decided to start using ear plugs as a preventative measure. Ear infections are typically caused by water staying in the ear canal for a long time, providing a moist environment for bacteria. Surfers ear meanwhile is caused by ‘ exostosis’ – bony growth within the ear, caused by repeat exposure to cold wind and cold water. This can not only increase the chances of further ear infections but also cause loss of hearing and further pain. Leaving this too long can result in the need for surgery. Sometimes, deciding on the best earplugs for surfing is more about deciding on the shape of a plug than going for nifty tech. We know loads of guys who’ve struggled through in-ear plugs and modulable plugs, only to find that the only thing that really works is something heftier. Cue the Hearprotek. These have big arms that extend more than an inch, all the way to the roof of the ear for added support. They’re made out of some very high quality materials that make the product feel like a premium product

We’ve seen complaints that the earplugs are very uncomfortable and that they can’t hear much when they are wearing them. From our experience they are comfortable but they do deaden the sound a bit. Use collapsible tabs for more detailed information that will help customers make a purchasing decision. Those steps involve finding an audiologist to get a mould impression, then sending it to SurfPlugs to get it created. However, the end product will result in the most comfortable custom fit ear plugs you can find on the market. I will be taking them on every surf trip I go on from now on and will be recommending them to everyone who asks that frequent question – are they worth the money? Again, Yes.

Drawing on his mechanical engineering expertise and aided by a team of fellow surfers, designers and engineers, Christian embarked on the mission to create the perfect earplug. Intensive brainstorming and countless prototypes eventually led to crafting a revolutionary product that strikes a balance between ear protection and preserving essential senses like hearing and balance.

Mouldable plugs are often advised as a cheap, simple, disposable option and so I tried using these first, also being an occasional pool swimmer in the winter months. Whilst these are obviously comfortable as they squish to your ear shape, and form a waterproof and windproof seal in your ear easily, they are not suitable for anything other than pool swimming.Naohiro Swimming Earplugs are about as simple and as standard as the best surf earplugs get. The key thing about the design here is that the flanged stem has been dropped in favor of a simple twist-in plug that sits in the canal (the inner part of the ear). It’s a shape that suits some ears and doesn’t suit others. We’re the latter, but you’ve just gotta’ try them to see if they’re your sort of thing. They clean very easily. Just rinse them after a surf, dry them, keep them away from the sun and store them in a dry place. Problems with SurfEars 3.0 The cheapest alternative pair of ear plugs on this list are from HearProtek. Offering an extremely well reviewed solution at a much more affordable price. Surf earplugs are a super important part of the kit these days. They’re there to prevent surfer’s ear, a phenomenon that sees the gradual expansion of the inner ear muscles and bones after excessive and regular exposure to cold air and H2O. It’s not a good thing. Victims can lose up to 90% of hearing. And the treatment is a drill taken down the ear canal. Ouch!
