    YUP - Love the Xdeep double and single enders... recently bought four of them from a dive shop in Florida and turned my local dive shop on to them. The other awesome thing about them, aside form a large,easy to use thumb lever, is that line can't get caught on it.... it just slides over the the lever, unlike the usual types you initially showed. Excellent for use with DSMB etc. Another informative Video :)

    Liking the vid. As usual some very useful info. I say to people, small clips are good for equipment which stays attached, like a torch on a lanyard. Bigger clips are better for equipment you need to disconnect / connect . I personally also like snap shackles for some jobs where quick release is useful.

    It's funny how us tech divers have turned boltsnaps into almost a fetish. But you're right. Good ones make all the difference. Mark from Simply Scuba even calls them Emotional Support Boltsnaps. ;D

    Xdeep clips are expensive but soooo worth it. Especially with dry gloves

  • @andrewkoch1395
    @andrewkoch1395 2 года назад

    I actually used these in Florida last month for my AOW course! I used them to keep my flashlight from falling off; I clipped it to my BCD and used the clip to hold my dive light instead of using the wrist holder. That way the flashlight would not fall off. Now I might have to get some XDeep ones!

    • @AzulUnlimited
      @AzulUnlimited  2 года назад

      They are pretty rad. I've been told you can get them cheaper from Europe. Glad to see you here Andrew :D

    A piece of advice for using paracord with bolt snaps. I remove the guts of the Paracord and it's just as strong for what you're doing. But it's not nearly as thick

    Xdeep makes a great small bolt snap for your long hose in gloves and I know the feeling I feel bougie every time I buy a xdeep bolt snap and I don’t even care they are the best

  • @timgosling6189

    XDeep boltsnaps are awesome, for all the reasons you say, and at least in the UK even the large single-enders are only around £12/$15US.

    Double ender bolt snaps a staple of tech diving and single ender bolt snaps with large eyelet for a thumb hole for stage bottle rigs. Great content. I use quite a bit of stainless sailing spring carabiner clips from my local marine chandlery when rigging gear for my recoveries. OCD, your amounts good company. 🤣 Cheers, #SeattleRingHunter

    What do you use for sliding D rings in your sidemount kit? The ones that look the best to me are the dive rite sliding d-rings, but I can't find them in Canada for love or money.

    • @AzulUnlimited

      I don't use sliding d rings. I have the razor harness and everything is fixed.

    I once ordered an XDeep NX Boltsnap and Double Ender for testing. They convinced me so much that I exchanged all my old ones for these.
    But here in Germany they only cost around 10$ incl. tax.

    Thank you for linking the XDeep bolt snaps! I have been trying to get my hands on some for a while now but couldn't find them local to me. I don't know why I didn't think of Amazon lol. Could I also offer a little maintenance tip for some people? dab a smidgen of silicone grease in the action every once in a while. I know everyone knows that lol but thank you and you're awesome!

    Thanks for the useful information!! I just bought 5 mm gloves to do my deep dives for my AOW class in Long Island, NY and was wondering how I am going to clip or unclip anything with them on.. These feel like my winter gloves that I have a difficult enough time doing whatever requires much dexterity with them on. These X Deep bolt snaps look like the perfect solution...

    I use carabiners for everything, including holding my rig together. Strap breaks? carabiner it! Tank has a leak? Glue a carabiner to it! Not certified to dive? All you need is a carabiner in your wallet! For real bolt snaps are way more useful!
