When you team SCUBAPRO's flagship first stage with a second stage engineered to excel in harsh conditions, you get a system that any recreational or technical diver can take on any dive, anywhere in the world, and be assured of rock-solid performance and reliability. The MK25 EVO/G260 is just such a system. The MK25 EVO delivers an ultra-fast breathing response, great sensitivity and extra-high airflow, making it the ultimate do-it-all first stage for all water temperatures. The G260 is the most imitated air balanced second stage of all time. It features metal internal components and a left-right hose attachment option, making it a great choice for tech diving configurations and a consistent top-of-the-line performer.
Features
- Air balanced flow-through piston in a chrome-plated brass body provides constant and effortless airflow unaffected by depth, tank pressure, or breathing rate.
- Patented XTIS (Extended thermal Insulating system) thermally insulates the inner mechanism from the environment, improving cold-water resistance and delaying ice formation in extreme cold-water conditions without compromising breathing performance.
- Anti-freeze protection radically increases breathing reliability when diving in the most extreme water temperatures.
- Two opposing high pressure ports allow the first stage to be positioned either up or down.
- Four high-flow and one axial super high-flow low pressure ports on a swivel turret maximize hose routing options.
- External intermediate pressure adjustment enables technicians to fine-tune performance quickly and easily.
- Air balanced second stage valve smoothes out the inhalation effort at varying depths and supply pressures.
- Rugged reinforced technopolymer design features SCUBAPRO's largest second stage casing and diaphragm for the ultimate in breathing sensitivity, regardless of position in the water.
- Metal components (inlet tube, orifice, inhalation control knob and hose connector) increase resistance to freezing when diving in extreme conditions.
- A diver-adjustable inhalation effort knob fine-tunes air delivery to suit changing depths, water conditions and personal tastes, and a Venturi-Initiated Vacuum Assist (VIVA) dive/pre-dive switch prevents free flows in cold water or when used as an octopus.
- High-flow exhaust valve reduces exhalation for better overall breathing comfort, and the reversible hose attachment allows you to easily adjust hose routing for tech diving configurations.
- Super-flow hose features an oversized bore that allows more air to flow on each inhalation.
What our Experts Think
- Exceptional airflow – Air-balanced piston first stage delivers fast, consistent air delivery regardless of depth or tank pressure.
- Cold-water ready – XTIS (Extended Thermal Insulating System) improves freeze resistance, making it ideal for challenging conditions.

A: It's ideal for advanced recreational, technical, and professional divers seeking high-performance breathing, durability, and reliable performance across all diving environments.
Maintenance Tips
- Rinse thoroughly with fresh water after every dive, keeping the first stage dust cap securely in place to prevent water from entering the regulator.
- Rinse only while the regulator is pressurized or ensure the dust cap is tightly sealed before rinsing.
- Lightly operate the purge button and adjust the Venturi (VIVA) and inhalation controls during rinsing to remove salt and sand from moving parts.
- Allow the regulator to air dry completely in a shaded, well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight and heat.
- Store with hoses loosely coiled to prevent kinks and avoid placing heavy objects on the regulator.
- Inspect hoses, mouthpiece, O-rings, and fittings regularly for cracks, leaks, corrosion, or wear before diving.
- Avoid exposure to sand, oils, solvents, chlorine, and harsh chemicals that can damage seals and internal components.
- Have the MK25 EVO first stage and G260 second stage professionally serviced at least annually or according to the manufacturer's recommended service schedule.
