Octopus - Carbon

The Octopus nose clip: a colorful mix of ergonomic design and high-quality components. Made of a robust polymer structure, two comfortable and replaceable elastomer nose pads, a strong quality cord and with a variety of funky colors to choose from. For many freedivers, already a new benchmark and the best nose clip ever designed! Already over 4000 units were sold around the world in the first year! Designed and tested by the Swiss record holder Pascal Berger (-131m VWT). Made in Switzerland.

What is the difference between the CARBON and CLASSIC nose clips?

The CLASSIC version is larger with round nose plates, while the CARBON version is smaller with elliptical plates. In this model we used carbon to stiffen the structure, as some areas were thin and needed an extra layer of reinforcement. Apart from this change in material, there is no real difference in quality between these 2 versions. So basically we can't say that the CARBON model is better, it just depends on the shape of your nose.

We could say that the CLASSIC version is a bit more comfortable, as the plates are a bit thicker (and larger), and that the CARBON version is more hydrodynamic, thanks to its smaller size. On average, the CLASSIC model fits "medium-small" to "extra-large" noses, while the CARBON model fits "extra-small" to "medium-large" noses.
