Took this BCD on my recent dive trip to Tioman—fits me perfectly and super comfy throughout my dives. The back inflate system makes buoyancy control so much easier compared to my old jacket-style BCD.

Good quality material and very sturdy stitching, but I found the utility pockets a bit tight when wearing gloves. Otherwise, it’s one of the most stable BCDs I have used.
