Nurul Afiqah –
Really solid BCD! Used it on multiple dives in both warm and cold waters, and the buoyancy control is super responsive. The padding on the shoulders and back also made a big difference for comfort during long dives.
Imran Hanafiah –
Thank you, Nurul, for sharing your experience. We’re glad to hear you found the comfort and buoyancy control effective across different dive environments.

Does the integrated weight system support shot weights as well as solid weights? I usually carry both types depending on my dive trip.
Junhao Lo –
Hi Kelvin, the Scubapro X-Black (2013) BCD integrated weight pockets are designed to accommodate both shot bags and solid lead weights, giving you flexibility across dive locations.
Wei Ling Tan –
Happy with the overall durability and features, just found the BCD to be slightly heavier than my previous model when packing for flights. Otherwise, very reliable during dives.
Imran Hanafiah –
Thank you for your feedback, Wei Ling. We appreciate your comments and understand the weight can be a consideration for travel divers, but we’re pleased you find it reliable in the water.
