DESCRIPTION

Whats in the box:BCD, Bx Inflator, LP Quick Disconnect Hose

The greatest difficulty in properly sizing a woman's Buoyancy System is not finding a smaller size, or allowing for the bust, but lies in the fact that women's bodies have a defined waist where a waistband must fasten in order to secure the BC. At the same time, women tend to have both a shorter torso length and a lower center of buoyancy compared to men. So conventional buoyancy systems, which would ideally be worn lower for best balance and comfort, must be worn higher, around the narrowest part of the waist, in order to be secure. The Zena's twin waist and hip band system provides a way for women to securely position the weights and buoyancy below waist level, around the body's center of buoyancy.

All of Zeagle's buoyancy systems are available with women's sizing options and can be adjusted to provide excellent fit and functionality for women divers.

The Zena BC, however, has been designed by women as a buoyancy system specifically for women. The twin straps adjust to fit waist and hips independently, while the elastic front panels provide outstanding fit and comfort. Zeagles patented PFS sizing system allows for the waist size, chest size, and torso length to be independently fitted. The Zena is designed to be fitted with the upper waistband at the natural waist, placing the weights and buoyancy low, around the body's center of buoyancy.

The Zena closes in the front with a heavy-duty zipper for a snug and secure, yet non-restrictive fit. A Ripcord release weight system is standard.

      Comments about Zeagle Zena Women's BC:

      Wife and I are doing a lot more dive travel (warm water). Researched every BC under the sun for women. Decided to get her the ZENA because of the fitment (not unisex), construction and other testimonials.

      The corset design is super cool. Much different than the traditional cumberbund. Haven't dived it yet, but with the waist adjustability I can't imagine anything more snug. She is really excited to try it.

      While it isn't the lightest travel BC out there, this one has steel D rings, dual tank straps, trim weight pockets and is made of more durable materials. Really like the "corded" bladder. We have friends with the ZUMA . . . the ZUMA is super light and suits them well but doesn't compare to the ZENA . . .with such an important component of your life support gear, sacrificing a couple of pounds seemed like a no brainer to me.

      The personal fit system is the awesome, BUT, be sure to get fitted BEFORE you buy on-line. Despite being an authorized dealer, Leisure Pro does not support sizing options unless you special order it. You cannot buy different "components" (meaning shoulder straps or any other component of the PFS) from Leisure Pro after the purchase. . .

      That said, a pleasant experience, product received timely and packaged well.

          I began scuba diving lessons with my husband. It's on his bucket list, but not mine. When we actually got into the water, I loved it, but I continued to struggle with my bouyancy. I was completely WORN OUT! After using this BC, I LOVE SCUBA! It fits and is adjustable in every way. Scuba is no longer a struggle. The right piece of equipment makes all the difference in the world! Now I can't wait to go on our next trip!!!

              Once I learned to properly weight myself (3 lbs each back pocket in salt water with a small tank) this was a perfect BCD for me. It fit like a good hiking pack would fit and was very easy to adjust. The customer service at Zeagle was very helpful in advising me on the weight adjustments.

                Not so sure about this product's durability as there are threads popping out on it after only 20 dives, but it fits super well and I really like the feel.

                  I was using rentals and friends before I purchased this one. I had no idea how comfortable BCDs could be. I have a large chest area so all the others I used would squish so tight in order to fit around the waist. This one has two adjustments to tighten right under the chest (at my high waist line) and a second at the belly button zone. It also has the comfortable front portion that covers just enough of my top half to not make me feel like the "girls" are on display. I can dive in comfort. Excellent BCD!
