Comments about Lifeguard Lifeguard Systems 19 CU FT Buoyancy Compensator:
We were issued these BC about two years ago. Not one person on my rescue team likes them. They fit horribly, look awful after about a month with fading and scuffing. The pockets are hard to access, and that doesn't mater because there poorly constructed and fall apart. Their cloth pony system is terrible. It's as if they weren't designed by a real diver. DON'T waste you money.
