Unique Valve Protectors – a soft rubber base protects the airtight bladder from wear by the hard plastic fittings. Crucially, they also ensure that bladder material does not get sucked into the fitting and impede air flow. Other manufacturers leave this to chance - we remove the risk by design |
| |
|
|
Expandable gusset structure holds the bcd in a low profile body shape that will not flap around or create drag during the dive. It also ensures that the buoyancy cell expands away from the body minimising squeeze on inflation |
