High End BCD's (3 Options) | ADRENO Scuba Diving

hi my name's Chris from Adreno Melbourne I'm here to talk to you about the high-end B CDs we have in store here and this is getting into the fun stuff all these stuff is super comfortable makes diving a lot easier the difference between a high and and a low-end base today is the comfort the way it bears the weight on your back whether it's over you know and you've got a 7 mil suit and you've got a lot of lead there also your big tank on the back something like this is actually going to make it feel a lot lighter and more comfortable to dive and walk with I'm not sure does this here is the oceanic patmos does come in two styles as a female these here actually are hybrid so the advantage of a rear inflation BCD is that you get all the lift in the back and puts you in perfect trim but does mean that when waiting on the surface of the water you're also eating the water so a jacket inflation will actually mean on the surface you can sit there nice and straight but underwater you might have to fight that inflation a little bit as it wants to turn around best of both worlds here in the Atmos and the HERA is the hybrid so a little bit of air through the back as you're diving you actually going to sit there dive like a rear inflation but as you get to the service and want to wait for the boat you fully inflate it and you're going to fill up and sit there like a jacket this here is super comfortable with a tank on your back the way the arm straps are actually positioned is a lot closer up underneath your arm here so means that that's going to bear the weight a lot easier you're going to have little rotation in the BCD to control you while you're diving this year has got integrated weight pockets and you've got your trim weights on the back that is the oceanic violight next up here is arguably my favorite BCD in the shop this here is a full rear inflation called the long dimension this here is actually minimized everything in the back plate making that tank a lot closer to your spine being your center of gravity is a lot closer making it super light and super comfortable it's got a thing called the rapture harness so that actually sits on your skin there being a rear inflation you actually fully inflate it and you still get no squeeze through the jacket or anything out the front as that's just the harness big metal d-rings to hold weight and hold age bottles integrated weights trim weights in the back this here is super super comfortable much prefer diving the rear inflation on a jacket BCD the strap here is located on the bottom which stops the tail from kicking out making it a lot closer to your spine being that seven center of gravity again hold it nice and straight and typically someone will put this on the stand straight upright compared to something that might not be able to hold the weight too well and actually cause you to have lean forward or back that there is probably my favorite one in the shop super super comfortable and that is the Aqualung dimension last option here is the Hollis HD 200 this is a Tec BCD so it's designed here for single weight our single tanks we have a horseshoe inflation on the back downfall of a horseshoe inflation there is actually that bring the highest point either here or here to actually deflate your BCD compared to a doughnut which is a full circuit it's got to meet a lot easier to deflate a doughnut so it's just one disadvantage with this BCD being a tech B city it actually has a harness building through it as well that from minimalized is the movement in your base at a gave me a nice and flush to your body and also less rotation while diving we do have weight pockets in here no need to wear a weight belt we've got some decent pockets here on the side everything is stainless steel and solid not a lot base today probably the heaviest one we've got so far but this is not so much a traveling be today but very very durable that's the Hollis HD 200 this was my three favorite piece that is in the shop all high-end and thanks for listening
