Kelvin Chia –
The shoulder buckles are really easy to adjust, even with thick gloves on. I felt comfortable throughout my dive and had no issues with buoyancy control. The pockets are big enough but could be a little easier to access.

Is the weight system compatible with standard lead weights or does it require custom weights? Planning to use my own weights from previous setup.

Hi Lina, the integrated weight system on the Sherwood Freedom BCD is compatible with most standard lead weights, so you should be able to use your existing weights without any issues.
Priya Nair –
I’ve used the Sherwood Freedom BCD for about ten dives now in both local and tropical waters. The fit is really secure and the BCD is holding up very well. Slightly heavy for travel, but otherwise very reliable.
