AirBuddy bridges the gap between snorkelling and SCUBA diving.
"It's a battery powered portable dive compressor that floats on the surface above you and follows along as you dive." |

BACKORDER NOTE:
AirBuddy is expected to ship again by 25th of April. We are out of stock of batteries at the moment. The demand at the beginning of this year was higher than expected. Coupled with the relatively long lead times for the batteries (~3 months), our stock has decreased faster than we could replenish. New batteries are nearing the production finish and are expected to arrive to our factory in Sydney by mid-April. Order now to be among the first who receive their AirBuddy once the batteries are back in stock.

Safety in mind
You breathe compressed air when diving with AirBuddy. You must therefore learn the diving theory, understand the risks and develop safety skills, e.g. to "never hold your breath!". Please, dive responsibly, know your limits and never dive to a depth you don't feel comfortable ascending from in case of an emergency. With AirBuddy, you dive deep enough to explore the beauty of marine life, but not deep enough to run a serious risk of decompression sickness - unless you dive more than 3 times in a row (or have accumulated some nitrogen from previous diving), you are within the no decompression limit (NDL). With shallow water diving, you are seconds away from the surface. For example, an ascent from 6m (20ft) takes about 20sec and from 12m (40ft) about 40sec at the PADI recommended ascent rates. Avoid diving down and ascending frequently.
In an unlikely event of an emergency, you can use 2 backup systems before needing to perform CESA (controlled emergency swimming ascent). 1) Use 16L compressed emergency air contained in the air reservoir, which provides about 4-5 breaths at 12m depth to about 12-15 breaths when close to surface at about 1m depth; 2) Use 100% redundant egressor/ pony bottle - size of your choice (purchased separately); 3) CESA - Swim towards the surface while slowly breathing out (making the "aaaaaah" sound). Although AirBuddy provides various safety features, YOU are the ultimate guardian of your own safety!
