“The weightless environment underwater provides amazing potential for acrobatic stunts and freedom of movement,” said Simon Parke, co-inventor and co-founder, S.C.P. Marine Innovation. “The optimum position when using other technology is to hold it out directly in front of you, but this often means that the thrust is directed straight at the user. The x2 Underwater Jet Pack is worn on the outer arms and is fast, manoeuvrable, un-tethered, and frankly redefines underwater propulsion.”
