Product Description
What exactly is the DeepFoil?
The DeepFoil is an underwater wing inspired by marine mammals that allows you to fly underwater. It naturally counteracts the buoyancy of the human body and provides a smooth, effortless gliding sensation without weights or mechanical assistance.
Designed and manufactured in France, the DeepFoil is the result of several years of research in hydrodynamics and biomimicry.
How does it work?
The DeepFoil is based on the principles of hydrodynamic biomimicry and works like an airplane wing, but in reverse. When tilted and moving through the water, it generates a force that pulls you either downward or upward, helping you control your depth without any external mechanical assistance.
Do I need to be an experienced diver to use it?
Not at all! The DeepFoil is designed to be intuitive and accessible to everyone: snorkelers, freedivers, swimmers, and even casual pool enthusiasts. It enhances the body's movement and makes depth control easier.
What if I don't really enjoy diving?
No problem—there is no obligation to put your head underwater to enjoy the ocean. The DeepFoil also allows you to cruise comfortably at the surface. When angled slightly upward, it even provides helpful support. Some users swear by it for surface swimming alone!
What happens if I let go of it underwater?
No worries—it floats and will naturally return to the surface. 💦
How should I hold it?
Hold the DeepFoil with the flat side—the side with the markings or text—facing you, and the curved side facing downward. This is important and sometimes counterintuitive, so forget your pilot instincts!
Is it easy to use?
Absolutely! The DeepFoil was designed to be accessible to everyone, even without any prior diving experience. Simply hold it with both hands and let yourself glide underwater: no motorized assistance, no weights, and no complex learning process.
After just a few minutes, the sensation becomes instinctive.
Do I need to use fins?
Speed is essential for diving effectively, so we recommend using fins to fully experience the DeepFoil's gliding sensations.
Does the DeepFoil replace traditional diving/snorkeling equipment (fins, snorkel, mask)?
The DeepFoil is a complementary piece of equipment. Fins are recommended to achieve the speed required for optimal gliding performance. A mask is recommended for better visibility, while using a snorkel is entirely up to your personal preference.
What does it feel like to use?
Users describe the experience as "underwater flight." It offers an unprecedented sense of freedom of movement and an intuitive immersion, similar to the way a fish or dolphin moves through the water.
Can I use it in the ocean and in a swimming pool?
Yes, the DeepFoil can be used in marine environments for open-water swimming, freediving, and snorkeling, as well as in swimming pools for training and recreation.
Is it suitable for all body types?
Yes, the DeepFoil is designed to accommodate all body types for users aged 14 and above.
Its lift automatically adapts to speed and angle, while its buoyancy is optimized for universal use.
Is it Planet friendly?
Yes—and we're proud of it! It is entirely manufactured in France and is either 100% recyclable or made from FSC-certified wood. What could be better?
Is it durable?
The DeepFoil is made from 100% recyclable HIPS and TPU, materials known for their durability and resistance to seawater and chlorine.
