Questions about this item:

Does the standard 1-Inch Crotch Strap have you singing an octave higher, but you like the convenience of a Quick Release buckle? The 1.5-Inch Crotch Strap QR Buckle is a welcome change to old industry standards. It comes with a slide release buckle for divers who want the convenience of a crotch strap that can be adjusted on-the-fly, yet the 1.5-inch (38.1mm) strap is more comfortable, especially if tension is added such as when scootering.
Using a crotch strap allows divers to fasten the harness and backplate securely to the body, ensuring more uniform trim and buoyancy characteristics in-water. It also reduces the likelihood of the tank hitting the back of the head during adive or while resting at the surface
