Lightweight Scuba Gear

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The Express Dive System Allows for Easy Underwater Exploration

— September 18, 2015 — Tech
Some of the main problems with scuba equipment is that it's expensive, hard to use (for novices) and once the tank is empty that could mean the end of your trip, but the Express Dive System looks to combine the best parts about scuba with the ease of snorkeling. Featuring an innovative compressor that holds air from the surface in a container for usage underwater, the Express Dive System, once empty, can simply be brought to the surface for fast refilling.

While snorkeling is not only fun but easy to pick up, it can be cumbersome if it's wavy or you get tempted to go a little deeper. The Express Dive System, designed by Cathal Redmond who studies at the University of Limerick, is an awesome alternative for snorkelers looking for more who aren't quite ready for scuba.
