What is surfer’s ear?

Surfer's ear, exostosis
Narrowing of the ear canal
Benign bone growths caused by surfer's ear
Benign bone growths
Spending time in cold water and wind can cause a condition known as Surfer’s Ear

It is a gradual bone growth inside the ear canal that can trap water, cause infections, and lead to hearing loss.
It’s a common issue among surfers, swimmers, and triathletes across the UK — but it’s also entirely preventable.
Wave Plugs are custom-fitted ear plugs designed by audiologists to protect your ears from cold water and wind while keeping sound and balance clear.
Protect your hearing today and stay in the water for life.

our happy customers

Previously trading as Surf Mould Pro Newquay we have a portfolio of happy customers.

As a swim coach I could not recommend these enough, there is absolutely no leaking and they are super comfortable. The acoustic filter is amazing, you can still hear everything.

The earplugs have a very snug fit as expected and you can hear what’s happening in your surroundings, which is great! Really pleased with this service!

Love these earplugs. I’ve been a beach lifeguard and surf instructor for 16 years. I’ve tested all the plugs on the market. So far these are the best I’ve found.
