FLOATS FOR ARMS
Add buoyancy to your underwater rig with floats for arms from StiX and Marelux. Designed to reduce underwater weight and improve trim and comfort during dives.
What are floats for arms?
Floats for arms are add-on buoyancy elements that help balance your underwater camera rig. By attaching foam floats or float belts to your existing arms, you can reduce the overall negative buoyancy and improve handling during a dive.
Why choose clip-on floats over float arms?
Not everyone wants to replace their arms. Clip-on and wrap-around float options let you keep your current arm setup and still fine-tune buoyancy. That’s useful for divers who already own solid arms and simply need a little more lift—especially when switching between lenses or accessories that shift the rig’s balance.
What difference do they make?
Even small floats can take pressure off your wrists and shoulders. A more neutral rig also makes it easier to hold steady for macro or video, reduces strain in surge, and helps avoid fatigue on longer dives.
Who are these for?
These floats are ideal for anyone whose rig feels slightly too heavy in the water. If you’re diving with a mirrorless or DSLR setup, shooting macro, or adding heavier lights or lenses, these options gives you a straightforward way to improve comfort and balance.
