Mares announce the Atlas ADJ 62X
After many requests for an all-metal version of the tried-and-true Abyss second stage regulator, Mares is excited to announce the release of the Atlas ADJ 62X.
Mares’ engineers designed this regulator with the most extreme conditions in mind. The Atlas second stage’s all-metal design offers high thermo-conductivity, making this one of the best performing regulators for cold water diving. The robust, metal exterior is highly durable and designed to meet the requirements of the world’s most demanding dive environments.
The new Atlas second stage features the PAD system (Pneumatically Assisted Design), and the Mares patented VAD system (Vortex Assisted Design). This impressive combination allows for high airflow, delivering smooth, easy breathing at all depths and temperatures. Moreover, with no moving components inside the By-Pass, internal ice formation during cold water dives is never an issue.
Wearing thick gloves is also never a problem with the Atlas second stage as it features a newly designed wide pivoting purge button and a wide, longer breathing adjustment knob that are both easy to access. The Atlas also features a lightweight Superflex low-pressure hose which ensures advanced comfort during use.
Such an innovative second stage requires an equally advanced first stage. Mares paired the Atlas second stage with their top-selling and most reliable first stage, the 62X. This newly improved first stage will be Mares’ first recreational regulator to feature the Twin Balanced Piston (TBP). This combination is the ultimate solution for extreme cold water diving. Mares’ innovative Auto Sealing Technology (AST), which protects against water entering the first stage, and the natural DFC (Dynamic Flow Control), which guarantees elevated, consistent airflow, makes the 62X TBP a completely isolated unit. The ATLAS ADJ 62X is the industry’s best recreational regulator for cold water and deep diving use.
With the Atlas ADJ 62X, Mares continues to prove they are a leading force in diving regulator innovation. This new regulator is sure to become a staple amongst demanding divers and for cold water dives. With performance standards that exceed expectations at 200m and proven technology at 400m, the Atlas ADJ 62X is ready to live up to the high standards that divers have come to expect from Mares regulators.

Oyster Diving have recently been given exclusive access to offer scuba diving courses and fun dives at Mercers Lake, a beautiful lake near M25/Gatwick in the UK.
Oyster have just launched their own dive boat ‘The Blue Pear’ to explore various parts of the lake. Divers can glide around the underwater woodland, see lots of fish and decent visibility. Out of the water divers set up in the purpose built kitting up area, unwind in a warm shower, and off-gas in the café & licensed bar.
To celebrate the start of the summer season, AquaSports and Oyster Diving have teamed up to host a Star Wars-themed open day on the 4th May.
Guests will be able to enjoy discounted tasters of various watersports including Stand Up Paddleboarding (SUP), Canoeing and Sailing. Oyster Diving will be joined by Apeks and possibly other dive manufacturers to display their latest products. Demo gear will be available for qualified divers and Oyster’s sales support team will be on hand for customers with any questions.
Divers wishing to get in the water will need to book in via Oyster Diving’s website where you can also choose to hire any equipment. Non-divers and well behaved dogs are very welcome!
As well as the watersports there will also be music, food and a licensed bar. The fun starts at 10am and finishes around 4.30pm.
Please come along, wear your finest Stormtrooper or Princess Leia outfit and enjoy the fun!
