Overview

A back inflated design places the air bladder behind the diver rather than around the chest, and this BCD is built for recreational and travel diving. The shell uses a Monprene gel material, with a fit type that adjusts for a range of body shapes.

The reason to buy is a recreational jacket with a long manufacturer warranty and an adjustable fit in the largest size. Its limit is missing detail: no lift figure, and the style row marks the alternate air version as an option rather than part of the base package.

Who it's for

Divers in the extended size range who go on dive trips and want a jacket that adjusts at the body. Anyone who needs a lift rating, or the optional style included, should confirm with the seller before ordering.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Back inflated layout
  • Four year manufacturer warranty
  • Built for travel diving
  • Extended size range
Cons
  • Lift capacity not listed
  • Hand wash only
  • Size shown as combined XL/2XL

Performance notes

Buoyancy is controlled by adding or releasing air in the bladder, and the adjustable fit decides how well the jacket stays in place on the body. Real handling also depends on weight, harness fit and cylinder attachment, none of which the listing details.
