Brand: Aeris

Located in: Essential Equipment, Buoyancy Compensators

The new and innovative design of the ATMOS XT allows the freedom of movement and other benefits you have come to expect from a rear-inflation B/C. However, the unique wrap-around design of the air cell provides you more lift than most B/C's; as well as an improved, upright orientation when the B/C is inflated and you are on the surface.

The ATMOS XT offers multiple adjustment and attachment points, allowing customization of the B/C specific to the divers needs. The ATMOS XT is weight-integrated with a combination of dump-able (20 lbs) and non-dumpable (10 lbs) weight pockets, providing the diver an integrated weight capacity of 30 lbs.

Comments about Aeris Aeris Atmos XT BCD, Black:

This BC is so comfortable you forget it's on... The pull tabs are easy to locate, everything is within easy reach for adjustment or for use. The flotation is excellent, no face down issues. It's easy to wear, handle and lug around. The clips are great, and being able to undo the shoulder straps is a nifty feature, allows for all sorts of benefits. It dries fast, is reasonably compact and is a fantastic buy...

Get one, you won't be sorry

Comments about Aeris Aeris Atmos XT BCD, Black:

I bought this purely because I was a cheap skate, and ended up being superior to my expectations. The only negative is that is an older design which has old style quick releases, but still way better than I have ever owned.

Comments about Aeris Aeris Atmos XT BCD, Black:

This is a good BCD. I am 6'2" and 220. I had to adjust the weights a few times to keep me from tipping backwards in the water at the surface. Other than that I am pleased with it.

Exceeded Expectations

Comments about Aeris Aeris Atmos XT BCD, Black:

I have been diving with this BCD for several months now, I work part time in the dive industry guiding etc, it's used in tropical waters 24+deg (C) at all depths within recreationall limits.

This is the first integrated unit I have owned and is extremely comfortable to wear/use, adjustments are easily performed and is suitable for females as well.

One concern I had was that of trim (on the surface), peers had commented about a 'face down' attitude with rear inflation units, though due to the design of the bladder I have no problem with this BCD.

All materials used are superior quality as is the finish and trim work, very happy in terms of 'Price/Value'.

After overcoming some initial hurdles with LeisurePro found them to be very helpful and efficient, from placement of order it took 24 hours to arrive in Australia, unbelievably it took more time than this to get from Sydney to Cairns (Customs etc).

Comments about Aeris Aeris Atmos XT BCD, Black:

I bought this BCD and tried it out at a local pool. It fits great and there is a lot of maneuvering room. There is hidden small zipper pocket on the velcro strap aside from the larger one that you can see in this picture. This larger pocket can be detached and switched between the right and left staps depending on how you like it.
There are 2 non-dumpable weight pockets between the bladder and your back which adds stability. The 2 removable weight pockets can be removed and used as actual pocket should you desire to use a weight belt instead.
The padding on the spine is very comfortable. I tried at least 30 different BCDs at different shops and this one is by far the most comfortable.

Comments about Aeris Aeris Atmos XT BCD, Black:

Good BC for the price. Integrated weight design is awkward. You have to pull up to ditch the weight versus pulling out and away. There's really only one small pocket on the front.
