XDEEP Stealth 2.0 Classic Sidemount System
Packing 16Kg of the lift into a streamlined and tough double-shell wing required true innovation.
Selecting materials that would stand up to the rigours of cave diving meant no compromises.
Combining these demands into a sidemount system that was streamlined, infinitely adjustable, and made our competitor's systems irrelevant was a challenge XDEEP relished.
In the cave environment, especially in tight restrictions, the XDEEP is peerless.
Sidemount Harness
The expression ‘thinking outside the box’ is often over used, but to revolutionise the sidemount system harness, that’s exactly what we had to do. Analysing the many systems already on the market was a start. We soon realised that something new and groundbreaking, something that would perform brilliantly in the Yucutan Caves as well as open water, was needed.
The STEALTH 2.0 includes some revolutionary features. Using harness webbing of differing thickness and stiffness meant a better more comfortable fit. Building true anatomical structures into the harness enhanced the diving experience. Movable D rings on the waist strap to allow for changes in tank buoyancy and control of tank position were first seen on the STEALTH 2.0 and have been widely copied since.
Quick to fit and adjust
Single piece harnesses can take up to half a day to fit properly and often need refining post dive. Because the STEALTH 2.0 has independent adjustment of the shoulder and waist straps it is quicker and easier to obtain a custom fit. Adjusting the shoulders does not affect the waist D ring positions, the crotch strap is a simple triglide adjustment.
Harness webbing fit for purpose
There are three different webbing types of the STEALTH 2.0 applied to best fufill the function required.
On the waist there is a stiff and rigid webbing that enhances the ease of use and operation of the D rings for cylinder mounting. Shoulder straps are softer to improve comfort, fit and flexibility. The crotch strap is very flexible, even soft, to reduce chaffing and wear on your exposure suit.
A simple idea, elegant in application.
Buoyancy control where you need it
Diving in caves and wrecks can put your body in some strange and contorted positions, especially in narrow passageways and restrictions. Safety and performance demand you can reach the dump valve with either hand, and dump gas without having to change position.
The STEALTH 2.0 dump valve is located centrally to ensure it can be reached anywhere with either hand. In addition it is placed to offer maximum protection from accidental operation or from being caught or damaged in the environment.
Perfectly position the wing
Because the wing has its own independent five-point mounting system, you can place the wing exactly where it needs to be.
During the dive as you mount and demount cylinders, drop stages or clip off scooters the wing can be adjusted to maintain trim. For a real squeeze of a restriction, you can even remove it to completely minimise your profile.
Need back up buoyancy for cave dive?
Backup regulators, dive torches, computers, and even a backup plan – cave divers know how to take care of their safety. STEALTH 2.0 Classic RB (Redundant Bladder) version adds one more crucial element: a backup source of buoyancy.
In STEALTH 2.0 Classic RB we added fully independent bladder and a full-featured inflator to the regular BCD, so you can safely enjoy the exploration of the underwater cave world of Mexico in your wetsuit.
Perfect Trim and Balance
The flexibility designed into the STEALTH 2.0 weight system ensures you control weight placement relative to your centre of gravity. The central weight pocket has a considerable range of movement, so it can be ideally positioned for balance. The same principle that is used in twinset diving when moving a V weight into the optimum position.
Perfect trim and balance in any configuration.
Central weight pocket
- D-size (8x2 kg)
- M-size (4x2 kg)
- S-size (2x2 kg)
- W-size (4x2.5 kg)
Additional trim pockets available to ensure your sidemount equipment is perfect for your diving needs
