AmvantiX-9 伸縮潛水蛙鞋

The Expandable Scuba Fins

AmvatiX-9, is a pair of expandable scuba fins, which helps divers to don and doff their fins conveniently in seconds. With the expandable structure of the fins blade, divers are able to shrink their fins when they are on land, to help them walk easily in their fins. This project aims to change the way of donning and doffing off scuba fins in order to decrease the risk of users hurting their back.

AmvatiX-9 改良於傳統蛙鞋設計，以滑軌的結構伸縮方式，讓使用者不用彎下腰便可輕易穿上蛙鞋。同時伸縮結構能讓在岸上行走更加舒適，增加使用者的活動性，減少使用者在穿上或脫下時受傷。透過針對結構的改進改變穿脫蛙鞋的方式，希望可透過減少使用者彎下腰穿脫蛙鞋而受傷的風險。

Gearing up needs to be simplified

Gearing up has always been a problem in scuba diving. Imagine putting on your dive fins with weights on your back, bending down with a tight suit, all this happening on a moving boat. Well, couldn’t all this be so much easier?

繁瑣裝備的負擔必須輕量化

由於穿上蛙鞋後將大幅阻礙使用者的行動，往往都會先穿上繁瑣的裝備與配種和氧氣筒才會穿上蛙鞋。而在彎下腰穿上蛙鞋時，更是增加了傷害到腰的風險，更別說這一切都發生在搖晃的遊艇上。
