When performance is your highest priority, LEG3ND is the answer. The LEG3ND shares the same breathing characteristics with the LEG3ND ELITE and LEG3ND MBS. The familiar Venturi switch now features an updated and ergonomic design. Because your sensations and emotions are amplified in the underwater world, you can focus on what matters: feeling free.

• New front cover opening channels allow water to flow sideways over the diaphragm
  • Radial openings to prevent freeflows when diving in stronger currents
  • Openings widened to reduce peak inspiratory flow by an impressive 20%
• New overmolded exhaust cover made of elastomer with a “soft touch” effect
• Overmolded air purge
  • Wide surface area makes regulator purging easier
  • Purge depth controller optimizes air flow with minimal effort
• Patented Comfobite mouthpiece reduces jaw fatigue and secures the second stage more comfortably.
• Detachable and reusable mouthpiece clamp allows a quick and simple tool-free mouthpiece change without plastic waste.
• The enlarged heat exchanger helps to prevent freezing of the second stage mechanism
• Air channel deflector
  • Directs the air flow evenly during the inhalation phase
  • Streamlined bi-material deflector lowers the exhalation effort
• Flexible and lightweight Aqua Flex hose with dual protectors

Diving Octos:

Diving Octos are part of Diving Regulators which form part of the life support equipment involved in Diving.

Their purpose is to be an alternate air source should your buddy require additional air.

Most Octos are unbalanced as it is, quite simply, more cost effective.
However many Octos are balanced and they are more reliable as they can be fine tuned and this results in a longer time interval between services.

A balanced Octo will breathe better than an unbalanced one. The decision regarding which Octo to choose, should be based on what you can afford. Rather spend more money on a top quality first stage and primary. 
You can always upgrade your Octo at a later stage.
