Quick Dive

2011_Quick_Dive__25_Flyer_bildmaterial_QuickDive_04

Quick Dive is a diving solution which reduces the hazards of the sport and the complexity of the equipment, making it possible to experience the fascination of diving even without lengthy training and expensive gear. The Quick Dive diving kit is intended as a beginner’s model and designed for depths of up to ten metres. Its essential advantages are its low weight (ca. 6 kg in comparison with the ca. 30 kg of a conventional diving suit), its compact volume and the minimal time it takes to get kitted up. This product fills a gap in the market between the conventional sport of diving and snorkelling.

Comments of the nominators

The idea of simplifying and popularising the sport of diving by using equipment of relatively low complexity has been convincingly realised.
