Buoyancy Control Devices For Every Diver

For every descent the buoyancy control divice (BCD) is a piece of life supporting scuba gear. Today's divers learn to use this equipment to maintain depth level underwater, and keep them afloat when they're at the surface.

For diving safety the BCD is essential scuba equipment on every dive adventure.

Be easy on your back with a thermal-foam comfort pad that's built in to the Genesis Cobra LD.

An adjustable cummerbund lets you adjust for length and depth.

Store your extra equipment in the two velcro-sealed pockets.

The Hollis HD-100 is built for durable heavy duty use.

This BCD gives you the ultimate in comfort with a back pad, lumbar support, a neoprene support rolled at the neck, and a cummerbund that clasps with Velcro® that is both adjustable, and removable.

Two straps for comfort. One supports the tank, the other supports the integrated weight pockets, which provide storage of up to 40-lbs between the front (dumpable) pockets at 15-lbs capacity each, and the rear (optional) pockets. The PRO BCD also adjusts to make room for a weight belt if you prefer.
