Why Sidemount Diving?
Sidemount configuration offers a revolutionary alternative to the traditional back-mounted scuba tank configuration. By mounting tanks on either side of the diver, rather than on their back, sidemount divers enjoy increased maneuverability, improved streamlining, and easier access to valves and equipment. This method enhances both safety and comfort, making it an ideal choice for divers seeking a more personalized and efficient diving experience.
