Scubapro Hydros Pro w/Air 2 Mens Scuba BCD

I recently received my Scubapro Hydros. I have not been out to sea with it yet, but I have a big trip next month and I am preparing.The reviews and online videos don't do the BC justice - it is fantastic in person. It has a wide array of "hard points" to customize the bindings you want to add to ensure you can lock down your equipment exactly the way you want it. Protip: You want to drop $20-30 on a good set of metric Allen wrenches and straight tip pliers so you can fashion the attachments you want to add. The various rings and connectors are amazing and fasten on easily.Also, don't worry about the color choices - you can buy any of the various colors as a separate purchase and quickly swap out the colors to make the BC look exactly as you want it, even if the current choice is not in stock.I will update this review in 2 months when I've completed my first week of dives with the BC, but I have every expectation that it will be a great experience.

I had been using the same old back inflate BC for years thinking - “it’s another piece of equipment (albeit necessary) for diving.”. I was wrong. I loved how this BC totally changed my beneath the surface experience! I had no idea how much my old BC was really making it so much harder to be neutral in the water. I just figured I wasn’t really great with buoyancy but it turns out -I am actually quite good and my old BC was just holding me back. The only downside to this BC is because of the material you’re a bit “squeaky” on the surface but in the water I didn’t notice it.

Great wing styled BC. It's very light and it comes in a very nice and convenient carrying bag. It has plenty of lift and it can be configured in many different configuration (it's fully customizable). I can see were divers used to jacket style BC and even bulkier wing style BCs will get a little time to get used to it. You can't even feel it in the water. Oh, and it dries in a heartbeat. My favorite feature of this BC is that it stays put, thanks to the new material in the shoulder straps and back plates. Best investment in a BC so far.

Does not come with low preassure hose.
