Adele Wong –
The Sherwood Zodiac BCD fits me really well, even during longer dives. The quick-release buckles are a big help when taking it off after my dive. I wish the pockets were slightly bigger but overall I’m very satisfied.

Does the integrated weight system make it difficult to ditch weights quickly in an emergency?

Hi Muthu, the integrated weight system is designed for safe and quick weight release in emergencies. The weights can be ditched easily with a single pull on the releasable handle for fast response when needed.

I recently used the Sherwood Zodiac BCD on a night dive and really appreciated the reflective accents. Felt much safer knowing I was more visible to my buddy.
