Stream2Sea Sea Clearly Mask Prep Kit Defog & Scrub

“

Stream2Sea is hands down the best product to take out with you on the ocean. Their products are reef safer, and they work incredibly well. Try their leave in conditioner for a tangle-free dive.

Garmin Descent Mk3 43mm Dive Computer Smartwatch

The garmin is a great watch for any Freediver, but especially one who is also active in the gym and in the mountains. It's the best all around watch, without sacrificing any features in your dive computer. Now with Garmin's new Dive-specific app you can quickly review your dive profile after your dive.

Mares Star Spearfishing & Freediving Mask

The Mares masks are soft on the skin and low volume, perfect for freediving. Try on as many masks as you can. Taking a course is the best way to borrow and see what mask fits best to your face. However, I've found that this is a great option for most people.

Surf-Fur Waterproof Parka

Do you dive in the cold? Then get one of these. Don't hesitate. This jacket keeps you warm and dry, coming from a small family owned company. Made by a team that's out in the water every day. These guys know what they are doing, and this will keep you cozy in any weather. My favorite pick for dives on the west coast or the PNW.

Seac Motus Freediving Fins

The perfect beginner fin. I've purchased two, I loved them so much. Don't waste your money on carbon fiber fins. Purchase these, bang them up a bit, and take them as far as you can go before you invest in some competition fins.

Finis Long Floating Fins

I wear the speedo version of these when training in the Blue Hole. So far, I've taken them down to 55 meters. They pack in a bag super small and are the best way to strengthen your legs for CWTB while you're still working on EQ.
