Super comfortable backplate—did a full-day wreck dive in Tioman and felt zero hot spots on my back! Adjusting the harness for my drysuit was fast, and I like how compact the whole setup feels compared to my old BCD.

Impressed with how sturdy the backplate feels, even after several saltwater dives. Only wish the padding was a bit thicker for my longer dives, but overall it’s easy to set up and holds my stage bottles securely.
