Comments about Genesis Genesis Recon BCD with CQR Weight Pockets (75 lb. Lift):

It is an excellent product in very good price. I'm completely satisfied with it. It is really durable with a lot of features. It'll give you freedom and comfort even if you work underwater. Its lift capacity is so strong that you should be careful, it can be "dangerous". So, if you need something that you won't take on vacation, I think it is perfect. A.

Comments about Genesis Genesis Recon BCD with CQR Weight Pockets (75 lb. Lift):

I bought this as I needed lift with a HP100+ and pony plus dive gear for a deeeep dive. It certainly has lift and I give it the big thumbs up for that. I thought it would sit more comfortably that it does. For female design integrated weights the pouches seem to sit right on my hip bones. Adjustment made it more bearable, but not great. Had some issues with the hose breaking and the pouch splitting but I think a new one is on the way, probably bad luck.

Comments about Genesis Genesis Recon BCD with CQR Weight Pockets (75 lb. Lift):

I purchased this BCD in 2003, and used it in warm water, cold water, ocean, lakes, quarries and caverns. I logged over 300 dives with it before I switched to a back plate and wing to accommodate my doubles.

Comments about Genesis Genesis Recon BCD with CQR Weight Pockets (75 lb. Lift):

I have done many fresh and saltwater dives and this BCD is a great. If you are not use to a back inflate than it might be uncomfortable on the surface as it makes you lean forward. This is a great travel BCD, since it get pretty flat for packing.

Comments about Genesis Genesis Recon BCD with CQR Weight Pockets (75 lb. Lift):

I am a search and rescue diver diving in zero visibility. Temperatures from 35 - 80 deg F. This BC has never let me down My local Dive shop and Genesis have always worked with me to get repair parts for the times I have damaged it...

It is easy to work on and repair for any technical diver.
