Will flip over easy with out weight
from Van Buren, AR on 8/21/2008
Used this flag a couple of times now, and it is stable enough that I tied my strobes onto it for a night dive which helped immensly with it's visibility at night.

Easy to use, and set up. towed with no problems. Seems pretty durable, only have used 3 times.

This float is great. I used to use just a "normal" dive flag but I would have boats coming up to me to see what the flag was. (I know tell the DNR or the Coast Guard. I'm in an area of the great lakes with LOTS of recreational traffic and they have no clue what a dive flag is some times.) With this float it says diver below and has the flag. That did the trick. I have not had one boat come up to me while using it.
I attached a 2lb hard dive weight to the bottom of it (it is made for that) and that helps to stop it from flipping over which other people had problems with.
I don't have any complaints about this float. Try it you'll like it.

Excellent to use in areas where boats and divers must share the close coastal waters. Much easier for a boater to see that a diver is in the area so they can slow and see.
from Phoenix, AZ on 6/26/2008
Large, easy to see and stable.
from Boston on 5/7/2008
I thinks this flag is pretty cool. Easy to set up andeasy to travel with.
I don't have a car with big trunk so this fits everywhere.
For this price???/u'd be silly not to buy it
from Buffalo, Wyoming on 2/19/2008
This is a tremendous safety device
from Frederick, Maryland on 1/23/2008
Good value for the money
from Wisconsin on 1/15/2008
I liked the float as a back up or to let my friend use- but went out when it was a little windy and the float flipped over and the flag fell out and sank to the bottom - somewhere. Improve that part and it's a good float
from Naples, Italy on 11/8/2007
Best Buoy I have ever used by far! Easy to inflate, stayed true on the surface and easily tow able by the dive leader! The Line at the bottom makes it great for hanging gear, etc and the interior open space is great for a mask, snorkle, or yummy bags of mussles!
from Connecticut on 10/23/2007
Great inexpensive dive flag. Easy to see!
They could make a bigger & more commercial duty one.This is a great value!
from Sarasota FL on 10/23/2007
highly visable, easy to assemble,stores easily
from Saginaw, MI on 10/12/2007
A dive float is a must for shore diving where boaters and jet skis are around. This one deflates and folds down nice and compact and brakes down into several pieces to distribute the weight in you luggage.
from Savannah,Ga. on 10/10/2007
Easy setup.Stows fairly small.Use with Multi-Purpose Reel for snorkeling and scuba.

This dive flag is awesome. Attached a 50' rope from the buoy to my dive tank. Suspended a 8lb mushroom boat anchor about a foot from the flag buoy to keep the buoy right side up. It worked great and never tipped over. The product inflates and deflates very quickly and takes up little room in my dive bag.
from Niceville, Florida on 9/27/2007
This is the best dive flag that I have ever seen. Can not imagine anyway to improve it.
from Satellite Bch on 9/25/2007
Excellent! Hopefully someone won't think that it is a lost float not knowing that there is a "DIVER DOWN"! But it is a must have!
from Northeastern, PA on 9/21/2007
You absolutely need an extra weight for this. Otherwise, in the slightest breeze it will flip over. Other than that, it's a standard dive flag. Pretty good construction, its just an innertube with a flag on it, nothing else.
from ADA,OK on 9/20/2007
Great Item. Everything I expected.
from St.Cloud, Mn. on 9/20/2007
I really like the size of this float and the high visiblity colors. It's easy to use and never dive without it.
from ADA,OK on 9/20/2007
Great Item no problems
from Wis. on 8/1/2007
Very nice, heavy duty. For the price you cant beat this float!
from Phoenix, AZ on 7/31/2007
Very easy to use/inflate and visable. "Diver Below" leaves no question why the float is there.
from Western Wisconsin on 7/21/2007
For the money great deal - put extra weights in middle for people working on buoyancy. visible light weight packs down very flat for travel
from Gladwin, Michigan on 5/10/2007
My instructor at my open water dive was using one of these. I had to have one and was extremely happy to find one here. You are able to place fins, mask or other items on it while putting on fins and getting ready for dive. This is a must for all divers

from Menasha, Wi on 5/8/2007
Easily deflates, and fits into dive bag, flag rolls up nicely. Nice storage area for items, (I put my thermos jug in the middle, for a handy cold drink) We found a 20 pound anchor and a dive pocket with 12 pounds of lead, hung it on this float in addition to the 5lb float weight, and it still floated nicely, but just a bit lower. If your looking for a versatile float, look no further, buy this one.
inexpensive and easy to setup. May look like a kids toy, but it balances well and is very visible on the water. Everyone will know your there with this float.
