Great BC, Excellent fit and very adjustable. Weight distribution is great, and allows for perfect UW trim!! The BC has 50 + dives so far and looks like new. Just bought another for my 13 yr. old son.

Great BCD. Great value. Great salesman who got off his butt and went to actually look at the BCD and answered my question. I was skeptical at first about the integrated weights, but once used, love it! Highly recommended.

Comments about Zeagle Zeagle Escape BCD with the EZ Lock Weight System, Black:

well, even though i find this as a cheap and nice west i found out the hard way when living in norway that xl is very small for a guy that are 190 cm tall,,
the west suits me, BUT its to small so the pockets in front are almost at my back and almost impossible to open under water, and also its way way way to short so the west stops on my belly and having me to adjust so it drops down, and getting the tank to lay on my lower back and again making me heavy in the water and giving me a hard time adjust so i can lay horizontal under water, YES it floats great at the surface..

so, most likely i will need to buy a new bcd, but this time i will try someone in a shop before just buying it online.

so, if u are kinda small person, maybe thin go for a bigger size and this is great for u, but if u are a big man, stay away..

i will recommend it, but not for heavy stock people...

Comments about Zeagle Zeagle Escape BCD with the EZ Lock Weight System, Black:

nice bcd, like the bladder system that are as close to having a ving, and i like that,

also have tried a few other bcd and this was the one making it easy to rest on the surface without dropping head down, also good fit.

Comments about Zeagle Zeagle Escape BCD with the EZ Lock Weight System, Black:

this bc is amazing- it fits well (had a HARD time finding one bc i am 5'3" and 240 lbs. with large breast!) it is easy to distribute the weight, and the ability to flush with a hose is awesome! BE CAREFUL, however, that the nipple does not loosen when you hook-up the hose bc i free flowed at 80 feet. luckily my buddy and i knew what to do!

Comments about Zeagle Zeagle Escape BCD with the EZ Lock Weight System, Black:

I have used this BC from caves to reefs from 20ft to 115ft, and from 95 to 62 degrees. It is so versitile, that it can adapts many dive roles. ripcord system is amazing, unzip, load, and zip and your ready to go, no velcro to wear out. the band system on the back goes through 2 rows of thick nylon webbing, and though it is not listed as a doubles BC, if you buy another set of tank bands it will easily accomadate doubles. It does not have shoulder D-rings but you can buy some to put on the nylon webbing if you need them. It has enough D-rings, they are just lower on the BC and dont keep gear centered. The Adustmant on the BC is phenominal, and it isextremly ex easy to pack. If you want a versital BC that is duribale, has many feature, and can hold doubles as needed, but is not extremely expensive, or bulky like tech BC's, then this BC is the best!

Comments about Zeagle Zeagle Escape BCD with the EZ Lock Weight System, Black:

I bought this BC for my girlfriend for Christmas, she personally hasn't used it alot, but other friends have. This BC and any Zeagle BC are very adjustable with the PFS fitting. Lightweight, ditchable weight pockets in front and on the tank for several configurations. Recommend this BC to anyone who is looking for a quality BC for a reasonable price.

Comments about Zeagle Zeagle Escape BCD with the EZ Lock Weight System, Black:

I bought this for my Son on his 13th birthday. He has grown 3 inches and 30 lbs since then. There was no problem adjusting this BC out for his growth spurt. It has taken everything we have thrown at it from beach dives to wreck dives, cool and warm water dives.

This BC is an all around performer traveling or @ home. I have dove this BCD in 58 to 86Degree temps and Altitudes 6500’+ to Sea level @ 100ft deep w/fishing gear, lights and 12lbs of lead with Zero “0” problems in any position. If you cant dive this rig like a pro, please stay on the beach and keep the beer cold….

Comments about Zeagle Zeagle Escape BCD with the EZ Lock Weight System, Black:

A 5 star BCD except for the lack of a couple of Stainless D rings. This BC is the best one I own. As are all the other Zeagles. It fits like a nice pair of jeans but it is far more adjustable. Great travel BCD, it is light and durable. Bouyancy control is very easy to manage. I like the fact that there are two extra pockets on this BCD to put your spare light in and a Signal mirror etc. Everyone I have let try this BC has instantly noticed how comfortable the fit is even when you get in the water. There are so many adjustments on these BCDs that you can easily fit a size up or down. Well worth the value. Being a Dive Instructor, I would strongly recommend this for student training.
