MAKO Freedive Training Float (Professional Grade)
The MAKO Freedive Training /Competition Float is a professional grade freedive training buoy, designed by and made for professional freedive instructors and freedive competitors.
Everything on this float is top of the line, professional grade quality.
Attention Freedivers #1: DO NOT CONFUSE THESE MAKO FLOATS WITH OTHER FLOATS WITH THE CHEAP PLASTIC INNER BLADDERS and plastic D rings!
Attention Freedivers #2: THE MAKO INNER BLADDERS ARE MADE OF THE SAME HEAVY DUTY MATERIAL used to make Salvage diving lift bags and the D rings are 100% stainless steel (not plastic).
Attention Freedivers #3: SO, NO NEED TO BUY A TRUCK INNER TUBE TO REPLACE THE INNER BLADDER and your D rings won’t break!
MAKO Freedive Training and Competition Buoy includes the following:
- MAKO Pro Series freedive training Buoy 28” x 8”
- Bladder made of the same material used to make Salvage diving lift bags (not cheap PVC stuff)
- Heavy duty interior buckles and straps system for added support.
- 4 perimeter STAINLESS STEEL D RINGS (NOT PLASTIC!)
- 1 bottom side STAINLESS STEEL D RING for connecting rope or pulley (NOT PLASTIC!)
- 4 heavy duty molded rubber handles (no nylon straps!)
- Bottom side mesh panel for rapid draining
- Heavy duty double zipper hatch opening
- Pull to dump valve deflates bladder in seconds
- Oral inflate tube with locking valve makes inflating fast and easy.
Because we sell direct to divers, our Freedive Training Buoy with all these upgrades, actually costs less than Freedive Training Buoys that don’t have these upgrades.
That is the MAKO advantage…
