This year the Boot 2011
fair in Düsseldorf Germany was a better fair than the last
couple of years. Against my expectation the fair was well
visited and many companies showed there latest products.
Although innovation and new products were very limited. For me
looking for new rebreathers the fair did not offer much news. I
have seen a couple of new things but generally speaking the
trade has to recover from the latest economical crisis.
In this page I show you some of the things I have seen. I
enjoyed Boot as all years and will certainly be back in 2012! |
