Product Description
MARES ROVER OCTOPUS
The Mares Rover Octopus is a dependable, mid-sized alternate second stage designed for recreational scuba diving. Built from lightweight technopolymer, it offers a practical balance of durability, comfort, and easy breathing performance.
The Rover Octopus features Mares’ VAD – Vortex Assisted Design, which helps create a smooth, natural breathing experience by directing airflow through a bypass tube to the mouthpiece. This is paired with a Fluid Dynamic Deflector, which helps control and direct airflow efficiently.
Its patented Mesh Grid helps reduce the effect of water flow on the diaphragm, which can help prevent unwanted free-flow in strong currents. A large, soft purge button makes the octopus easy to use in an emergency, while the rubber hose provides a simple and durable connection.

Technology
VAD – Vortex Assisted Design
The air bypass tube directs airflow to the mouthpiece and creates a low-pressure vortex that helps keep the diaphragm activated during inhalation, resulting in smooth and sensitive breathing.
Fluid Dynamic Deflector
Directs airflow from the bypass tube toward the mouthpiece to help improve breathing efficiency.
Mesh Grid
The patented grid design reduces the impact of water flow on the second-stage diaphragm, helping reduce unwanted free-flow even in stronger currents.
Ultralight Technopolymer
Provides a lightweight and abrasion-resistant construction suited to warm and moderate water diving.
Application
Perfect for recreational scuba diving and as a reliable alternate air source for divers using a compatible Mares regulator setup.
Lightweight, simple, and dependable — the Mares Rover Octopus delivers smooth breathing performance with practical emergency-ready design.
