Octopus Strap
Manufacturer Dive Rite
Dive Rite Octopus Holder keeps regulator second stages securely in place when not needed, yet releases them quickly in response to a firm tug.
- The elastic shock band that encircles the second stage mouthpiece does a great job of holding on to the second stage, yet will release it quickly when tugged.
- The Dive Rite Octopus Retainer fits a wider variety of second stage mouthpieces than the plastic dip-molded type. You don't have to fight to get a mouthpiece inside a Dive Rite octopus retainer - only to see it mysteriously fall out later.
- The low-profile, sliding-bolt snap helps keep overall "dangle" to a minimum. It enables you to move your extra second stage quickly from one accessory D-ring to another (something many divers do when suiting up or removing equipment). It also makes the octopus holder perfect for taming wild decompression or stage regulators.
