Hi all,
good news for the freedive world, seems like we will have a new freedive computer soon!
Thanks to XDeep, a polish brand specialized in scuba gear, a new dive-computer will enter the market soon!
This computer is going to be proposed at first as simple “Bottom Timer”all ready responding to many of our needs, and following in a short time will arrive even a “Trimix” and a “Nitrox” version.
I’ve had the opportunity to get in touch with the product at last European Dive Show which took place in Milan (15-17 February 2013), and immediately after I contacted directly XDeep asking if a version specific for freediving is on the way… IT IS!
XDeep, thanks to the high number of requests, is working on a software specific for freediving!!! They are coding it and looking for all the functionality that freedivers want!
I’m writing here to collect for XDeep as many requests and suggestion as possible to produce the best frrediving computer possible, based on their hardware!
They are eager to work on the freedive software and to curve it to our needs!
Here following some information over the XDeep Black.
