Two years ago after the death of Gene Higa at US Nationals 2004 in Hawaii... alot of spearo's started rethinking safety issues. Many idea's were discussed at which time I thought ... why don't we just combine a Suunto D3 with a Co2 life vest ? I drew up plans and did a patent search ($500 ) only to find out just how expensive product development / marketing would be. I'm very happy there were others on the same sheet of music with the financial means to get through the product development stage. I wish them the best of luck with their commercial venture... the product is long overdue. Would'nt be surprised if it quickly became a required item for competition spearfishing.
