The integrated traction back pad means you'll be comfortable throughout your dive, as well as before and after. The traction pad keeps the Passport from shifting on your body as you move; once you don the BCD and secure the straps, it will stay put no questions asked.

Comments about Seaquest Seaquest Passport BC:
My husband has had his for 4 years, I've had mine for 3. Velcro on his pockets is just about gone (I rescued a weight pocket of his while diving on Lanai last year). Mine still looks brand new, but then he dives about 2X more than me and was using his travel BC for lobster diving here in FL (which he does almost every weekend when it is season, so that's a lot of dives he put on the BC).
Good BC for the price. Great for travel. Lightweight and the mesh bag can carry all my gear except fins!

Comments about Seaquest Seaquest Passport BC:
Pockets hard to get to rings made of plastic one broke the first time I used the bc. Lost a weight pocket. Cheap and light but not great.

Comments about Seaquest Seaquest Passport BC:
MAJOR ISSUE
We bought 2 of these and both were torn after only 7 dives although we are careful with our equipment. The material is very thin and not sturdy enough to resist the rubbing that takes place in the back where it is sawn / glued to the plastic piece that holds the tank in place.
Both BCD's had the same defect.
Was used in drift dives / moderate to strong currents (Palau). Although external material was torn, internal part was OK and continued to operate properly avoiding to create any potential safety issue (at least for the first 20 dives, we returned the BCD's since)
SMALLER ISSUES
No front clip on the chest (not a big deal), no pressure valve release at the bottom of the BCD (you need to release air from the top only, we can deal with that though...). Weight belt velcro not very sturdy (tends to release on its own if bumped on the boat ladder when exiting rough seas)
POSITIVE
Lightweight & compact, great to travel
Maybe we were unlucky and had 2 defectuous products but I will buy another model / brand. Store offered a store credit but no refund although BCD's were purchased less than 3 weeks ago.

Comments about Seaquest Seaquest Passport BC:
Very comfortable and easy to adjust. I've only used it for cold water diving, and its handled quite well. Easy to store and PERFECT for travel.
