The Octopus CNF lanyard: a mix ofsafety, efficiency and comfort. Hydrodynamic and ergonomic, this belt will always stay on your hips no matter what! It is made using only high-quality components, from the super-light carbon composite polymer carabiner, to the 100cm plastic-coated stainless steel cable, and the strong water-resistant marine-graded polyester belt. The stainless steel quick-release also includes an innovative easy-grab tag. Designed and tested by Swiss record-holder Pascal Berger (-131m VWT ).Made in Switzerland, for quality you can trust.
Please note than since January 2021 all our carabiners are equipped with a polycarbonatewhitecover replacing the colored elastomer old model. This new part is designed to protect the connexion between the wire-end and the wire, thus improving the longevity of your lanyard:
Less dragWe drastically reduced the drag during freefall by using a thin but sturdy belt: polyester with aviation-style weaving, only 1mm-thick but able to withstand more than 500kg loads, soft and pleasant to the touch. The carabiner cable being only 3mm in diameter, also contributes to significantly reducing drag.
Waist positioningA simple but efficient fastening system between the legs, quick to clip on, ensures that the belt will not move up the waist during your freefall when your suit compresses. This «AUTOLOCK» system does not require applying excessive tension on the elastic band but keeps it softly and comfortably in place without friction between the legs.
Adjustable sizeBoth front and back buckles can be positioned exactly according to your body shape, same as for the elastic band which can be cut once you have measured the proper length (by first testing it on your own body).
Belt 100% polyester strap and UV-treated nylon parts
Elastic belt Resistant polyester and latex (made in France)
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!
I haven’t used the replacement DEEP FREEQ™ v2 goggles yet, but I’m already very satisfied with Evolve’s after-sales service. I encountered an issue with my original pair on first use, and the team responded quickly and professionally.
They handled the warranty replacement smoothly and even sent me the V2 Black variant as requested, which I truly appreciated. Communication was clear and reassuring throughout the process. This level of customer care gives me confidence in the brand, and I’m looking forward to using the replacement in my upcoming dives.
I absolutely love deep evolves. Thanks to these goggles teaching has become very easy. I don’t need to pinch my nose, I can focus on my students, recording them and giving all my attention away :)
I didn’t know they were having the tattoos pattern and I really loved it. I just used them last weekend on my free diving training and they were great.
I love the color of the belt and the variety of color options offered. Love that the belt can be snapped aside so I don’t have the excess hanging in my way while diving, and especially love the ability to add attachments such as an O ring I purchased separately to store/carry my snorkel. Genius design!
I have had these fins for 4.5 years now, and I'm going to be purchasing again. They look great, and they work great. My gear gets banged up pretty good from boats and rocks and these have held up wonderfully.
My Bad! I recently found that the foot pockets have stretched out. I live on Kauai and this summer was a hot one! I typically store these hanging by the foot pockets. I think the combination of heat and gravity on the heel was enough to stretch it. They work ok with booties now but I will be likely be ordering again and keeping this next pair safe in a bag.
