Item Description

MAKO Freedive Lanyard (with quick release shackle and swivel)

Our Lanyards are AIDA Approved!

The MAKO Spearguns Freedive Lanyards are designed specifically competitive freediving and freedive training. Each freedive lanyard includes an extra strong Velcro wrist strap with a stainless steel D ring, that is attached to 100% stainless steel emergency quick release shackle (with swivel) for added safety. This is an important freedive lanyard requirement for many freedive competitions.

Attached to the emergency quick release is a completely hermetically sealed steel cable that is molded inside a super abrasion resistant outer jacket for un matched strength and redundancy. 

At the end of the freedive lanyard cable is a super strong stainless steel carabiner for attaching to the line.  The weight and sink rate of this stainless steel carabiner is perfect for diving with fins and is the preferred carabiner among competitive freedivers who wear a mono fin or wear bi fins. 

The Velcro wrist strap on this freedive lanyard is both comfortable and durable and includes a quick release pull tab (with the required swivel).

Freedive lanyard cable length measures 40.5 inches (103 cm)

This freedive lanyard is approved for competitive use by AIDA

    Does the job

    Posted by Everitt Gordon on Mar 23rd 2020

    Let’s face it- no one really loves wearing a lanyard.... sort of takes the free out of free diving. But it could save your life.... what I like about the Mako lanyard is that the cable isn’t stiff like a spring so the carabiner free falls naturally. The wrist loop is soft, easy to attach, and stays on securely. And yes, it’s a bomber carabiner.

    Leash rocks

    Purchased this leash to replace one I lost recently. I am lucky enough to free dive on a line almost daily and these leases have been amazing and they last longer than I can keep from loosing them it seems. Between the two I prefer the SS day in and day out.

    Well made

    Great product. High quality and the best price I could find. I purchased two with the stainless steel clip for about the price of one from a competitor. I'm very pleased.

    I own both versions

    Posted by Kevin McNally on Oct 16th 2018

    I use the stainless steel version for constant weight and the aluminum for free immersion/pull downs. The clips have nice big openings for attaching to lines. The wrist strap is comfortable and the velcro quick release is easy to use even with gloves on. I've taken them to camps and people like using mine better than higher priced lanyards. If I could only own one it would be the stainless.

    Great lanyard!

    Secure wrist loop and s-o-l-i-d heavy duty carabiner that stays in front of you and out of the way when doing free immersion.

    Solid piece of equipment

    Posted by Kevin McNally on Jun 25th 2018

    I purchased the stainless steel version for use in a 6 day freediving camp in Mexico. It's solid and easy to use. The cable has swivels at both end to minimize tangles and twisting. The wrist cuff has a nice sized tab you can grab with gloves to rip open the velcro in case it gets stuck on the plate and you need to quick release and bail out of it. Other people in the camp had other brands and everyone preferred mine to theirs. Skip the aluminum carabiner unless you are certain you want it. They tend to float along and cause more tangles and problems in my small bit of experience. The SS sinks nicely and follows you along.

    AWESOME PRODUCT

    Posted by Oscar Eichelmann on Sep 8th 2017

    Incredibly built product. Works excellent and feels sturdy and pro. I believe I will be using this lanyard for years and years, not only because the quality of materials and craftsmanship is superb but also because it is VERY confortable. Five Stars all the way. Thank you Mako!!! PS: Purchase and delivery was equally great.

    Great safety device

    Like using this on line dives when visibility is decreased. Increases the safety of training.

    This was my 4th or 5th purchase from Mako and once again they delivered; great product (the lanyard), ease of purchase and quick delivery. I'll keep coming back and will continue to recommend them to everyone I speak to who's looking for freediving equipment. Thank you!
