Mark: This is an ideal travel BCD, its light and minimalistic and will pack small. The pockets are easily accessible and big enough for a small reel and SMB. Integrated weights are awkward to find, but the inflator dump is rapid.

Martin: The novel style of integrated weights make the pockets small. I dont like the fact the integrated weights are out of sight, but they do work okay. Buoyancy is good, its comfortable, but it lacks a shoulder dump.

Tony: I couldnt find the weight pockets easily and I dont like the trim weight pockets on the cylinder band. Needs a shoulder dump.

John: The quick drop weights would be a problem for me if I was taking them out to get in a RIB. The trim weight pockets look like an after-thought. Chest strap is more of a neck strap for me.

Stuart: Its tricky to get used to the weight releases. It was quite comfy and a good looking BCD. Pleasantly surprised.

Simon: Very light but not a lot of buoyancy, otherwise its very nice and I like it a lot. Pockets are a bit small and I cant see the point of the carabina.

Dave: Good for travelling. Cold do with a shoulder dump and looks okay. Im not a fan of the integrated weights which are very hard to find once the BCD is on. I like the non-dumpable pockets which detach. Id appreciate the padded shoulder in a wetsuit.
