Rating: Diver Below Dive Ball and Flag
Reviewer: christopher krause, Sunday, September 24, 2006 - View all my reviews
This product has notable pros and cons:
Pros: Cost. Can deflate it and stow away with ease. Even if boaters see the Diver Down flag and think it means theres a person from Switzerland in the water they can read the "Diver Below" label on the ball and know to keep their distance.
Cons: Low profile... less than one meter tall. Diver Down flag is not rigid so you have to jimmy-rig it yourself if you want people to see it. Does not stand upright on its own... youll need to purchase weights for the bottom pocket or stuff the pocket with rocks.
Recommendation: 1) increase the flags height by purchasing a cheap piece of dowling from a hardware store. 2) take a clothes hanger and bend it at 90 degrees, punch a few holes in the top of the flag and weave one part of the clothes hanger through the holes to make the flag rigid. Use red duct tape on the top of the flag to keep the clothes hanger from ripping the flag.
If you enjoy tinkering with stuff get this flag and itll be better than any premade buoy out there.

Rating: Inflatable dive flags
Reviewer: James Spencer, Tuesday, September 19, 2006 - View all my reviews
Diving Venice Beach for shark teeth form shore.
The flags were verry easy to use there function was
wonderful. My wife and I both used the flags along with
four other divers using the same type. The only problem
I lost the flag carring the ball out of the water as did
one other. Three of us had the flags slide off, I was
paying attention to other divers and didnt notice the
flag slip off, I should have secured the flag to the post
the flag slid over.

Rating: Works great
Reviewer: Marsha K., Monday, June 04, 2007 - View all my reviews
We use a dive flag on the boat, but other boaters dont seem to notice it. With this in the water it gets more attention. It inflates and deflates easily and fits in the dive bag. The only complaint I have is the nylon rope used to attach was not finished at then end and frays and doesnt tie off easily. We are going to have to use a differnt type of rope to tie off with. But other wise its great, I can tie it off the anchor rope for it to float several feet from the boat to alert other boaters.

Rating: works well, but watch the flag
Reviewer: David Pringle, Thursday, October 12, 2006
The float was easy to inflate (orally) and is highly visible while floating on the surface. It was also easy to tow.
The one thing that we all noticed was that it was easy to lose the flag. The pole was fairly secure in the float, but when we carried the float, several of us lost our flags (off of the pole) and had to go back and hunt for them.
Overall, it works well and I like that it collapses for storage. Just make sure you zip tie the flag to the pole before you use it.

Rating: Dive flag and float
Reviewer: Dan W., Friday, February 02, 2007
Weve used this several times. If you want peace of mind and a greater sense of security, I highly recommend that you purchase one of these. Theyre really easy to inflate and can use water for the bottom fill. The flag is easily visible and we used a carabiner and some rope attached to the bottom and tied it off to a rock to stabilize the float. Great for setting off an area for your family or group to snorkel.

Rating: Great deal on the buoy
Reviewer: David W Covington, Sunday, December 10, 2006 - View all my reviews
Read the reviews from other customers and decided to try it and so how I liked it. Agreed with the others that the flag will come of if not secured properly. So what I did was to drill a small hole through the flag and pole. Took some nylon ties and secured it to the pole that way. There can be other ways to secure, just try what you think is best, but thought I got a great deal.

Rating: Highly Visible
Reviewer: Joe Roberts, Sunday, September 10, 2006 - View all my reviews
Ths flag and float was easily packable. Water chamber large enough to allow float to stay upright without problems. Large and high enough to be seen boats in congested passes and in moderate surf. Towed easily.
Really cool swimming pool decor when not used diving.
Kids finally tore it up...but I bought two initially.
This one will be for diving only.

Reviewer: Dan G., Monday, July 02, 2007 - View all my reviews
This flag was exactly what i was looking for you can easily blow it up by mouth and when your done with your dive deflate it to have it fit perfectly into your dive bag, also when blown up it is large enough to be visible from a good distance. perfect addition for any diver at an excellent price

Reviewer: julie benard, Saturday, October 14, 2006
I love this dive flag! Its just the perfect size when its not inflated, it can fit in a small pocket, which can be useful when we are travelling with scuba gear. And it does just the thing when you are diving. People can really notice the dive flag.

I gave my husband (and me) this dive flag for christmas since we did not have one. Its a nice compact size for the gear bag and it has an area at the bottom for water to keep it upright in the water. Havent tried it yet but it looks great.

When diving in Wyoming not all boaters are aware that people actually scuba dive in the cold waters this makes it much easier to let them know that an activity is going on near them and it isnt just an abandoned boat in the water.

Rating: Nice Buoy for travel
Reviewer: Kristian B., Tuesday, May 29, 2007 - View all my reviews
The compact size makes it a great buoy for travelling when space is a premium. Works great for lakes or minimal surf areas when you need to tow it. Wouldnt be suitable for ocean/bays with heavy winds or tide.
