Strong and reliable, our new OCTOPUS safety stopper enhances your safety as it efficiently prevents your lanyard from getting stuck. The almost-flat upper part gives a clean stop to your carabiner, while the lower part, with its conical shape, allows your lanyard cable to be “expelled” towards the outside, with no grip to get it stuck. Following our prototype tests, we chose a diameter wider than a tennis ball’s (75mm vs 65mm). Finally, the bright fluorescent yellow color makes it more visible.
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 stopper is divided in two parts. 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!
The new OCTOPUS safety stopper: a simple and efficient design for an unbeatable quality! Designed and tested by Swiss record holder Pascal Berger (-131m VWT ).
MOUNTING INSTRUCTIONS
What you need:
- A cross head screwdriver
- Ideally electrical tape (or any other tape)
- Ideally a cutter blade (or a very sharp knife or scissor)
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!
