E084 Patrick Widmann - KISS Sidewinder 2

E084 Patrick Widmann - KISS Sidewinder 2

The KISS Rebreathers team recently set Facebook "on fire" with their teaser posts on the new Sidewinder 2. To say that the new changes are innovative and revolutionary feels inadequate. Many of the changes are in the process of being patented and there is even a patent pending on the entire concept by which this rebreather operates. By definition, this means that the KISS Sidewinder 2 will bring new and unique features not seen before and will be a huge step forward in the world of sidemount rebreathers. It's great to release Episode 84 sponsored by XDEEP with the support of the patrons of Speaking Sidemount. Huge thanks to both for their support which makes this podcast possible. In this episode, I catch up with Patrick Widmann, Training Director for KISS Rebreathers who has been heavily involved in every aspect of the redesign and testing of the Sidewinder 2. Patrick and I discuss the history of the Sidewinder, Patrick's own journey with this unit, and the acquisition of KISS rebreathers, and then we move around the loop, or closed circuit of the Sidewinder 2 and discuss each of the changes and what this will mean for the new unit. We finish with Patrick sharing on the new instructor and training tools that appear to be as innovative as the Sidewinder 2 itself and we also discuss the pros and cons of a Bailout Valve (BOV) for the Sidewinder… Enjoy
