Having a buoyancy compensator that fits you well, and has the features you want in a buoyancy compensator will make your dives more comfortable. Buoyancy compensators are an essential piece of scuba diving gear, thus it is important to look at all of the options when you purchase your new buoyancy compensator. Scuba BCDs or buoyancy compensators are used to float the diver and the scuba equipment on the surface and allows the diver to maintain neutral buoyancy at depth. Cold water diving requires the use of thick wetsuits. Both of which require ample lead weight to offset their buoyancy, and a buoyancy compensator with enough lift capacity to compensate for the loss of that buoyancy at depth. In contrast, warm water diving requires that a buoyancy compensator have little more than a place to strap the tank, hang your hoses and enough life to float the diver and minimal weight.
Scuba BCDs or buoyancy compensators offer a variety of shoulder and waist adjustments to help you custom fit the buoyancy compensator to your body. Quick releases on the shoulders make for easy removal. Back inflation buoyancy compensators place all the inflation behind the diver. Many scuba BCDs offer integrated systems which allow the diver to use a weight system to store weights as part of the buoyancy compensator which includes the ability to be able to ditch the weights in an emergency. In addition, buoyancy compensators provide a means for you to stream line your scuba gear. If you have any questions about your new buoyancy compensator, please feel free to contact us.
