Diving Belts for Spearfishing, Freediving, and Scuba Diving at Diving Sports Canada

At Diving Sports Canada in Vancouver, we offer a diverse selection of diving belts tailored for spearfishing, freediving, and scuba diving, sourced from top brands like Cressi, Seac, C4, Beuchat, and XS Scuba.

Types of Diving Belts

  • Nylon Belts: Known for their durability, nylon belts are great for scuba diving but may feel less comfortable for extended use in freediving due to their rigidity.
  • Rubber Belts: Ideal for freediving and spearfishing, rubber belts are flexible and conform to your body, allowing unrestricted movement and better breath control. Their stretchability ensures that weights stay secure even as your wetsuit compresses at depth.
  • Silicone Belts: Combining flexibility with durability, silicone belts provide a comfortable fit and are resistant to UV light and chemicals.
  • Buckle Types

  • Metal Buckles: Typically made from stainless steel, metal buckles offer robust security and are corrosion-resistant, making them perfect for all diving environments.
  • Plastic Buckles: Lightweight and rust-resistant, plastic buckles are suitable for those looking for a budget-friendly option without compromising functionality.
  • Buckle Designs

  • Classic Buckle: This classic design is simple to use and ensures a secure fit, ideal for quick adjustments underwater.
  • Marseillaise Buckle: Popular among freedivers, this buckle type offers a secure lock with a quick-release mechanism for emergency situations.
  • Choosing the Right Belt

  • For Spearfishing: A rubber belt with a Marseillaise buckle is often preferred due to its flexibility and quick-release capability.
  • For Freediving: Rubber or silicone belts with flap buckles are recommended for their stretch and comfort, allowing for better breathing techniques.
  • For Scuba Diving: Nylon belts with metal buckles provide the durability needed to handle the additional weight of scuba gear.
  • Whether you are a seasoned diver or just starting out, finding the right belt can significantly enhance your diving experience. Visit Diving Sports Canada in Vancouver to explore our wide range of diving belts and get expert advice on the best options for your needs.
