Is there a wrist pad to help secure dive computer?

[alex_can_dive]

Just bought a wrist dive computer, unfortunately my wrist is very small - even when I wear a 8mm wetsuit, the dive computer still won't sit securely in place (circumference is ~15.5 cm with wetsuit on).

Any alternative for me? (Really don't want the console type because it's annoying having to hold it.

Silly question, but have you tried it up further on your forearm?

Yes, but it'd slide down the wrist eventually :*(

You could try something like this:


you can also put non-skid material underneath the kydex on the inside.

Bungee cord or small surgical tubing. I still use the straps, but the bungee is a backup for what these things cost.

Good lcuk,

That looks pretty cool for a home-made unit!

Aha, now you give me ideas.
Would it affect my buoyancy a lot if I wear a wrist brace?(like the ones worn while skating/rollerblading?)

I got a Cressi Giotto Wrist Computer. (Plastic strap)

I doubt it.

I doubt it but I'm not really familiar with that type of brace.

Then...there is this. The Russian part raises an eyebrow.
