Max and Steel were looking for clues of the abductions of people, but they had to go underwater. Steel decides to create Turbo Scuba Mode to explore the ocean.
Enhanced Durability: Max's armor is incredibly resistant. According to the official website, Max is able to survive pressure of up to 10,000 pounds per square inch, depths of 40,000+ feet and extreme temperatures of 2* C.
Underwater Breathing: The suit allows Max to breathe underwater.
Enhanced Abilities: This mode offers agility, strength and speed in bodies of water.
Jetpack: The suit has a jetpack embedded on its back, allowing Max to swim faster.
Weaknesses[]
Neffective outside of water:Turbo Scuba Mode is made specifically for aquatic environments; outside of these, the mode does not have much use. In Deep Turbo Blue Sea, Max was stuck in this mode and had a hard time trying to moving around in land due to the flippers embedded on his feet, giving him disadvantage in combat against the Ultralinks.
Inability to switch modes: Max can't switch modes underwater because he would drown, not to mention the water pressure, which forces him to remain in the current mode even when another option is better.
Lack of offensive capabilities: the suit lacks any offensive means, making Max dependent on the environment.
Appearance[]
Max's helmet retains the blue V-shaped visor seen in others of his modes. He gains a yellow vertical fin on the center of his helmet and the lower part of his helmet is inspired by breather apparatus used in scuba diving. He has spiky protrusions on the neck region, yellow markings on the chest near the Steel logo, yellow and blue markings on the sides of his lower and mid torso along with white armored sections. He has white shoulder pad with a blue fin inserted vertically onto it, a yellow streak on his biceps, white forearm pads with a large blue fin protruding from it and black gloves with yellow details and webbed fingers. He has a white and yellow armor covering his thighs, blue fins protruding from his calves, a blue streak that extends to his blue flippers and a yellow streak around the back of his feet.
