Hi All,

Whilst it's not specifically a diver propulsion vehicle we thought you might like to take a look at our underwater jet pack.

Here are a couple of videos taken during some recent testing with some freedivers in Belgium:

We'd love your feedback!

Thanks! Glad you like it :D

You're right, the current x2 isn't optimised for SCUBA use, but it's definitely something we're looking in to.

but if you try ........i think you would be frst underwater ! PS that's why scooters have leash rope on backplate harness !

Why be so harsh? One could easily argue that a disembodied electric trolling motor dragging a person through the ocean by their crotch is a stupid idea, and yet many people call that very concept the state of the art in diver propulsion technology. Let them try something new. The industry needs some new ideas.
