Highlights
Outing Highlights
A double‑propeller scooter in pocket‑size form
MixPro is billed as the smallest double‑propeller underwater scooter: ultra‑lightweight and compact yet capable of speeds up to 4 mph and designed to keep going on a single charge for roughly an hour.
Built for hands‑free filming
A designated phone mount on the floater and a universal action‑camera mount let you secure a smartphone or action cam and record underwater sequences without extra rigging or cost.
Two‑gear control and quick recharge
Two speed settings let you choose thrill or sightseeing (with quoted speeds of about 1.8 m/s and 1.2 m/s), and the scooter runs on a lithium‑ion battery that recharges rapidly — giving you more time in the water.
What the day feels like
What it feels like to ride
Riding the MixPro is a compact, buoyant extension of your arms: a light, double‑propeller unit that tugs you through blue water at modest speeds so you can explore under the surface, whether in a pool or on a snorkel and dive outing. The scooter’s ergonomic mounting options make it equally useful for playful laps and for framing video—one battery cycle gives you a concentrated window to explore and record.
