Slip-Tip: Spear Tip for Freediving and Spearfishing
The Slip-Tip is an advanced Spear Tip designed specifically for freedive spearfishing and bluewater hunting. The tip release mechanism allows the front section to separate from the shaft and turn sideways inside the fish’s body after impact.
This technical innovation prevents the fish from using the shaft as leverage, reducing the risk of Spear Tip breakage or the fish tearing off, ensuring greater reliability during retrieval.
Applications and Technical Advantages
- Ideal for taking powerful, fast pelagic species with soft flesh, such as Wahoo.
- Significantly increases Spear Tip holding power even when the fish is not fully penetrated.
- The tip’s ability to turn sideways in the flesh improves the chances of success in spearfishing.
The Slip-Tip is therefore an essential component in freedive spearfishing equipment, thanks to its mechanical strength and its ability to minimize technical risks when retrieving large, powerful, fast-moving fish.

Seams are generally glued and heat-sealed to ensure water tightness and durability. Men’s and women’s models are available, with sizes from XXS to XXL.
Fins for Freediving
The freediving fins in this section are made from 100% carbon, high-strength mixed carbon/fiberglass composites, or polymer materials. Blade length ranges from about 75 cm to over 90 cm for long-blade variants. The monofin version is mainly intended for dynamic apnea and constant weight disciplines, and requires specific technique. Foot pockets, integrated or removable, are available in different sizes and stiffness levels. The choice of blade material directly affects elastic response and muscle energy consumption per kick cycle.
Masks for Freediving
The freediving masks in this category differ from traditional underwater masks due to their low internal volume, which limits the amount of air required for equalization during deep descents. Tempered glass and a soft silicone skirt are standard features. Some models are also available with anti-fog lenses.
Buoys and Atolls for Freediving
Freediving buoys are essential signaling, safety, and training accessories for open-water practice. In this case, the buoy type is the Atoll, a floating platform to which the descent line is secured, used during depth training sessions and competitions. The descent line connected to the buoy allows the athlete to orient themselves during descent and the safety team to monitor the session parameters.
Safety in Freediving
Freediving safety is not an accessory, but a structural part of the practice. This subcategory includes lanyards (safety cords) with quick release, connection systems between the athlete and the descent line that allow retrieval in the event of an accident. A quick-release system is essential to ensure prompt intervention by the safety diver.
Weights for Freediving
Freediving weights include both traditional belt weights and weighted collars (neck weight), used in dynamic apnea disciplines to streamline body trim during pool lengths. The choice of weighting system depends on the discipline practiced, depth, wetsuit thickness, and the individual athlete’s buoyancy trim.
Nose Clip
The nose clip (nose clip) is an accessory used mainly in indoor and outdoor freediving disciplines to prevent water from entering through the nose and to facilitate equalization while keeping the hands free. Shape, material, and closing pressure vary between models.
Bags
This category includes various bag models for transporting equipment and long fins, which do not fit in standard bags due to their size. Some are approved for air travel as checked baggage. The rigidity of the structure protects carbon blades from impacts and twisting.
Pool Accessories
The pool subcategory includes equipment and accessories specifically for indoor freediving training, intended for static and dynamic apnea disciplines.
Practical Use
Open-water freediving requires a minimum kit that includes a wetsuit, mask, fins and buoy, line, and safety lanyard. The buoy signals the diver’s presence to surface vessels and is the anchoring point for the safety system. The lanyard connects the athlete to the descent line during the vertical phase, allowing rapid intervention in the event of loss of consciousness at depth.
Pool training requires a different setup: for static (STA), a thin wetsuit, goggles or mask, and nose clip are sufficient. For dynamic (DYN), long fins or a monofin are the central element, with weight that must balance the buoyancy of the wetsuit to maintain a horizontal trim.
Depth training sessions with an atoll require a vertical descent line connected to a surface atoll.
Equipment transport is an important practical consideration: long freediving fins, especially monofins, require dedicated fin bags to prevent damage to the blades during transport.
Conclusion
The Freediving category at Deep Blue offers a comprehensive technical selection covering every phase of the discipline: from basic equipment for pool training to specific gear for depth sessions and competition. The subcategories reflect the real needs of freedivers at any level.
