Finally a BC for a freediver!
No longer must a freediver kick hard to descend to a fixed neutral depth, remain negative throughout the bottom portion of the dive, or fight to ascend to the surface at the most critical time of a breath-hold. (See Standard Freediving Buoyancy Profile, click here.)
With an Ascent BC Belt, the freediver deflates the small retractable air cell and dives, kicking only lightly. Soon he is falling to the preferred depth. (See Ascent BC Belt Freedive Profile, click here.)
Neutral buoyancy can be easily achieved with a touch of a quiet inflation valve. Bottom time is greatly enhanced by the reduction of exertion.
The Ascent BC Belt requires specialized training to use properly and safely. Contact your Zeagle dealer for more information.
Neutral buoyancy can be easily achieved with a touch of a quiet inflation valve. Bottom time is greatly enhanced by the reduction of exertion. A slight kick upward begins the expansion of the BC belt, which provides increasing lift as the diver ascends. Upon reaching maximum volume the overpressure valve vents off excess air from the streamlined air cell. The diver continues to rise, even without kicking, as the Ascent BC belt eases him through the zone where a shallow water blackout can occur. The added floatation at the surface is sufficient to keep a properly weighted diver afloat even after exhalation, providing another margin of safety. The breath up for the next freedive is much easier with the extra buoyancy provided by the BC belt.
Full floatation is always available in a time of need, such as during a fight with a speared fish.
WARNING! This super streamlined BC Belt and Tank Pack are for advanced divers with advanced buoyancy skills and therefore should not be used by novice or intermediate divers.
The Ascent is not a Personal Floatation Device or Freediver's Safety Vest. It will not keep a divers airway dry on the surface. Obtain proper training before freediving with an Ascent BC Belt.Obtain proper training prior to using the Ascent BC Belt.
