The Deep & Steep Insight is a digital skydiving altimeter, GPS data recorder, GPS feedback device and electronic logbook in one compact unit. It is built to be simple to use during the skydive, while still giving you useful GPS and logbook data after landing.

Insight can also connect wirelessly to compatible HUD glasses powered by Engo, giving you a heads-up display option for freefall and canopy flight. Mounting options are sold separately — choose the wrist mount, hand mount, adjustable strap mount, or mudflap adapter depending on how you want to wear the device.

Important: mounting options are sold separately. Please add the required mount to your cart separately.

GPS tracks

Insight has integrated GPS and automatically records your track during each skydive, so you can focus on your jump instead of managing a separate GPS device. There is also a manual recording option, so the device can be used for other activities where GPS data is useful, such as BASE, speed flying, paragliding, or similar sports.

Saved GPS track files can be imported into common viewing programs. View a sample GPS track file.

GPS data feedback

In the aircraft and under canopy, Insight can show useful information to help you make better decisions. Available GPS feedback includes heading over the ground, groundspeed, glide ratio, distance to your marked landing zone, direction to the landing zone, and more. The goal is to make the jumper more informed without adding unnecessary distraction.

Wireless connectivity

Insight currently connects to HUD glasses powered by Engo. Deep & Steep also notes that additional peripheral apps and devices are planned to wirelessly connect to Insight.

Battery life

For normal weekend skydiving, the manufacturer estimates roughly 4 weeks of use before needing to charge. If jumping every day, Insight can last approximately 10–16 days. Battery life depends on which functions are used — features such as display lighting and GPS recording drain the battery faster.

Display

  • Large daylight-readable display designed for excellent visibility outside.
  • 120° viewing angle horizontally and vertically.
  • Works with polarized sunglasses, although there can still be a specific lens angle where the display appears black.
  • Gorilla Glass screen — hardened, scratch-resistant glass similar to what is used on phones and high-end watches.

Water resistance

Insight is water ingress tested for 30 minutes at 1 metre depth. It is suitable for normal skydiving use and water exposure, but it is not intended for scuba diving.

USB-C charging and file access

Insight charges via USB-C. When connected to a computer or phone in USB Connect mode, it also acts as a USB file system, allowing access to saved logbook and GPS track files.

Fast charging

If you forgot to charge the altimeter, approximately 20 minutes of charging can provide enough battery for the rest of the day. A full charge from 0% to 100% takes about 1 hour 30 minutes.

Easy logbook access

The latest 20 skydives can be viewed directly on the Insight logbook screen. The full logbook is stored as a comma-separated file and can be opened on a computer or phone by connecting the device with a USB cable.

In USB Connect mode, Insight appears as a drive. The full logbook can hold 60,000+ skydives and can be viewed in spreadsheet programs or compatible logbook software, together with all saved GPS track files. View a sample logbook file.

Automatic shutdown

Insight automatically shuts off 14 hours after it was turned on for the day. This saves battery and can extend shelf life by more than 50%. The device will not shut down unless it is at ground level when the 14-hour limit is reached.

Automatic display lighting

Insight automatically enables the display light when ambient lighting is dim or dark. The night light turns on when the altimeter detects descent in freefall or under canopy. It is not enabled by default while sitting on the ground, which helps save battery.

Pressing any button temporarily lights the screen for 15 seconds in dim light. There is also a menu option to keep the light on permanently if the automatic feature is not appropriate for a specific skydive.

Mounting options

Mounts are sold separately. Compatible mounting options include:

  • Insight Wrist Mount
  • Insight Hand Mount
  • Insight Adjustable Strap Mount
  • Insight Mudflap Adapter for “The Wedge”

Included / not included

Perfect for Pilots
Color: Gold/G-15 Green, Lens Width: 55 Millimeters
I work in aviation and got these because they have a very top gun, fresh-esque look. The glass is solid, I’ve dropped them a few times and haven’t scratched them yet (from August - March). Fits perfectly under my headset and they can slide on and off pretty easily with the headset on. I can see the G1000 perfectly, without losing any of the panel as I did with my polarized glasses. Good shades - slightly too small for my face, hence the four stars.

Just perfect.
Color: Gold Havana/G-15 Green, Lens Width: 55 Millimeters
I saw this model of Ray Bans while watching Top Gun: Maverick. Actor John Hamm (Cyclone, in the movie) sported these during the beach scene. I looked for them here in Amazon and was lucky to find them for less than $100. They fit just great, and the lenses (G-15), give a clear and high definition picture. I definitely recommend them, perfect for driving, cycling, or your next F/A-18 mission.

Almost like they used to be...
Color: Gunmetal/G-15 Green, Lens Width: 55 Millimeters
These are the 3rd pair of Caravans I've owned over the years. The 1st pair were chrome frames and got mangled one time when I had set them on the trunk of the car to fill-up and drove away without them. Went back after only 100 yards or so, but by then they had been clipped by another car and were toast. Kept the lenses, sent the frame back to B&L (when they were still in Rochester -- and when customer service really WAS important to the company) and they sent back a brand-new pair of black-framed beauties -- FOR FREE! This pair recently experienced a broken frame - right at the junction of the lower curved piece that holds the lens frames together. (How this happened, I have no idea. I was wearing them. Put them in my shirt pocket. Took them out, put them on, and the lens was still in my pocket!) Now, Bausch & Lomb is owned by Luxottica (in Atlanta, GA.) Not entirely friendly, I would say, especially in the tone of the service rep's voice and bluntness. And I was told my only hope of getting any kind of satisfaction was to ship the broken pair to them and after examination they would decide whether it was a manufacturing defect or a customer caused one. Believe me -- there are NO damage marks on these black frames. The frame just cracked due to what? Fatigue, I guess. If judged in my favor they'd give me a substantial discount (40%, I believe) off list price on another pair that they might have in stock at the time. Egads! Talk about leaving you feeling helpless. NONE of the frames and lenses shown were to my liking, so I opted out of that choice and decided to search Amazon for a pair to my liking. So, this brings me to the new ones -- the subject at hand. The lenses on these are advertised as being 55mm wide, which they are. However, the original Caravans were 58mm wide = a small but perceptable difference, especially in field-of-view coverage AND how they look on your face. The G15 lenses seem to be the same tint, and the color (gun metal grey) is very nice. They fit well, and are what one would expect given the name RayBan. Therefore, I recommend them. [Footnote: As for my broken 58mm black-framed pair -- I looked up repair shops on the I-net, found 2 that seemed to talk a good game, picked one (in Cincinnati) and shipped them off today to have the frame laser welded. I am keeping my fingers crossed that they'll come back in usable shape (as promised) and I will again have my Old Faithfull's back. $35 to save a no-longer-made classic pair of RayBans is worth it in my book.]

Classic Design!! But the 55mm frame is too small..
Color: Gunmetal/G-15 Green, Lens Width: 55 Millimeters
Really solid frame and arrived rather fast (7 days before the expected date). It included the original packaging, booklets, cloth and case (the brown one) in the original box. Was surprised that it felt quite heavy, or at least more than what Im used to, although when I wear it I can't really feel the weight. The weight also adds to the feel of it making its structure feel a little more solid that lighter sunglasses. Unfortunately, the 55mm gunmetal + green G 15 lens which I ordered, is about 6 millimetres too small at the sides for me although the lens and front frame are the right size for me and it's actually still wearable. (it's just me). I would probably get the 58mm gold + green G15 later to see if there's a big difference (shouldn't be from the measurements given). That and the fact that these are a great pair of shades with a really classic design

Iconic, but needs a few notes
Color: Gold/G-15 Green, Lens Width: 58 Millimeters
A great style, especially for those of us who don't go for the original Aviator style. But these sunglasses do need a few notes. The size on these have 58mm-diameter lenses with 15 mm between the lenses (if my decoding of the code on the side is correct. This is the largest size in this style, and even at that they are just *slightly* too small at the ears for my head. For context, the Ray Ban Wayfarer with a 50mm lens and 22m nosepiece fits perfectly. Also these, like the original Aviators, are intended to cover pretty much the entire eye socket, so if you're seeing light coming in from the side or top...they are too small for you. In other words, if you don't have a specific size head, these may not work for you and you'll be frustrated. I know it's hard to buy online since you don't get to try them on. OTOH, it's a little unethical (in my opinion) to go to a brick-and-mortar store just to try them on so you can turn around and buy them off of Amazon. DIYD and all that. Assuming the fit is acceptable, these are very well made sunglasses. They just *feel* like quality and the lenses are fantastic. There is some concern on Amazon about some Ray Bans being fakes. The pair I received are the real thing - look for the etched R-B on the left lens (not the lens with the white logo on it), the R-B logo on the nosepieces, the lenses being made of glass (not plastic) and the identifier engraved on the underside of the bridge...these are indicators that you have a genuine pair in your hands. I purchased directly from Amazon, not a "fulfilled by Amazon" purchase, so caveat emptor on that score. All in all, an outstanding pair of glasses at a good price.
