An absolute evolution in footpocket design. We at 29/71 have created the DS.1 where form and function were integrated in the design from the beginning. We wanted to produce a lightweight, comfortable footpocket that gives the ultimate diving performance.

Key features we wanted in the design was for each pair come as a left and a right. To also eradicate discomfort and blistering common in all footpockets, and in the DS.1 we have done this. Another engineering feat we wanted to do, was to reduce the weight of the footpocket, and we have been able to reduce the weight by 40% compared to the average footpocket.

So how have we done this?

Each footpocket shape is 3D woven to mimic the foot shape and then TPU stiffners are welded to give rigidity in the exact place for efficient and instant energy transfer from freediver to the blades. And with each footpocket there are two sole plates, an inner and an outer where the blade is sandwiched between the two soles. This gives the freediver a tangible connection directly to the blade. Each sole is made from a rigid 3D Printed material, this gives the diver a stable platform to transfer the energy perfectly in the up and down kick.

Each footpocket has a drawstring to help customise the fitting around the ankle.

To fit the blade to the footpocket, there are four M4 blots which screw into the innersole, this makes assembling and disassembling for traveling or interchanging between different blades to suit ones diving conditions very easy. No more dealing with glue or having to have a professional fit your blades. With the supplied screwdriver you can fit your blades in the comfort of your home or even at the dive centre in less than 5 minutes.

So if your looking for comfort and performance in your freediving or any diving activity the DS.1 is ready to take you to new depths.
