Brand: Cressi
Located in: Essential Equipment, Buoyancy Compensators
The Cressi Aquapro 5 BCD has been completely revised both functionally and aesthetically. The Aquapro 5 is an economically minded BCD, yet has all the features of higher priced buoyancy compensators. The durable 420 Denier Nylon and self draining mesh fabric construction will give years of dependable service. The Aquapro 5 has two unique "gravity" ditch-able weight pockets that are attached to the bellowed zippered accessory pockets with one on either side of the BCD. The weight pockets closures are quick-release impact and corrosion resistant Fastex buckles. Just squeeze the buckles and the weights are released.Each pocket can hold over 6 lbs (3 Kg).

The back support is rigid for proper cylinder stability, but is fully padded forcomfort. The harness assembly is an independent suspension system that allows the cylinder and the diver to keep proper stability and avoid cylinder shifting on the back, while allowing the BCD's air cell to fully inflate away from the diver not causing restriction or crushing effect as with non-ergonomic designs. Adjustable sternum straps along with both torso adjustment straps are equipped with quick-release buckles.

The BCD has three over-pressure relief/dump valves with two located on the left and right shoulders and a third lower valve on the rear right of the air cell. All three can be manually dumped two with pull cords and the other with the power inflator mechanism. There are two stainless steel D-rings on the shoulder straps and two plastic D-rings on the pocket lobes with two additional snap hooks for attachment of instruments and accessories.

Comments about Cressi Cressi Aquapro 5 BCD:

Very comfortable BC. Did 14 dives with it recently in Jamaica and was thrilled. The adjusting of the straps is effortless both in and out of the water. Cressi does a nice job with this. The materials are of excellent quality and the weight is nice for packing. Not as light as the Cressi Travelite BC but light enough at approx 7.5lbs so as not to go over for my packed bag on airline.
