Why is it better to train with a bottom plate?Get used to grabbing a tag during some of your training sessions. It will help you reduce the « tag stress » during your competitions by making this step « almost » automatic.
It works perfectly with a 10 to 12mm rope.It is possible to use it with smaller ropes down to 8mm.
Regarding the mounting process, the bottom plate is divided in 3 parts. A plate and a center structure (identical to our safety stopper). A simple knot is placed in its center, and 3 stainless steel screws (standard cross-head) make it easy to finish putting it in place. It is made out of ABS, a strong plastic used for example to make LEGOs: after all, we are just big kids playing in the water!

I received the belt shipped across the country in less than a week. Super soft and comfortable silicone. Awesome white color for high viz. However on my first day out I had a safety hang up and had to ditch my belt to make it to the surface to not blackout and sent the belt to Davy Jones locker. Only got to use it once, but if I wasn't able to ditch the belt, I probably wouldn't be writing this review. Definitely going to have to get another one!
This is the best weightbelt I have ever dived with. Throw away all your other belt because this belt will transform your diving experience! Highly Highly recommend
Received the product, but haven't used it in the water yet. Arrived on time, all parts and pieces were there and functioned properly. Clips, lanyard, belt, all feel like high quality and solid parts. Really looking forward to trying this out! Really great company here!
