Free diving guide of Lanzarote

In the website of tourism Lanzarote you can find a fantastic guide dives of 156 pages, with great detail and written in three languages ​​(Spanish, English and German).




Diving places have been chosen based on their level of use and their representativeness, as well as the uniqueness of the landscape, life and environment. It is worth highlighting the inclusion of 14 sites that provide ideal conditions for beginner level dives with just a mask and snorkel, as an introduction to diving with SCUBA gear.

The 30 areas described are an example of what Lanzarote treasures in its more than 100 dive sites. The recommended underwater routes have been grouped into four island areas, identified by color, according to their location and characteristics.

Free Diving guide of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria

“Shipwrecks in Las Palmas, cataclysmic basaltic tunnels and underwater cliffs at La Catedral, a volcanic maze at La Baja Fernando, shoals at El CabrAón, spiny butterfly rays, common sting rays and angel sharks on the sandy bottom in Sardina del Norte,..., extreme diving in Gando.

20 years travelling round the world: from Chuuk to Sudan, from the Bahamas to Layang Layang, from Palau to Jardines de la Reina, always to return to Gran Canaria, to Las Palmas de Gran Canaria.

Because this island is the closest and yet the least known of underwater landscapes, and Las Canteras beach is its crown jewel”

The world's first power heated wetsuit

The idea was straightforward. Design and build the world's first power-heated wetsuit. The concept was unique. Rip Curl has made the best surfing wetsuits since 1969, but never before have innovation, technology and science so meticulouslly challenged.


The plan was precise. Research, development, testing and production unrivalled. Succes would open up a new frontier for surfing exploration. Failure was not an option.

The Rip Curl H-Bomb is now a reality. It has conquered the extremes of the Artic Circle. It is backed by oru elite surf team and performance tested by World Champion Mick Fanning.

The H-Bomb use 2 lithium-ion 7,4 volt batteries. Each battery weighs 120g. Batteries are rechargeable. Recharge time is aprox 3 hours to restore full power. The batteries power up heating elements on your back.


The batteries are carried in internal pockets on the lower back, positioned so there's minimal impact on your flexibility.


The temperature of the elements is controlled using 3 settings on the switch.
