Overview
Cressi built this jacket-style buoyancy compensator for divers who travel by plane. Light materials cut weight, and a Lock Aid System is integrated, while the nylon shell, zipper closure and adjustable straps hold it together.
Low packed weight and the luggage-securing strap make it attractive for fall dive trips and flights. The listed capacity is limited, and the listing does not state lift volume.
Who it's for
Frequent air travelers who dive recreationally will find the light build and the stash pocket convenient. Divers carrying heavy tanks, large weight loads or cold-water exposure suits should look at a sturdier jacket with a lift rating.
Pros and cons
- Light jacket for air travel
- Integrated Lock Aid System
- Luggage-securing dive strap
- Underwater inflator handle
- Lift volume not listed
- Listed capacity is modest
- Single size listed in this version
- Nylon shell is soft, not rugged
Performance notes
Waist fit stays stable thanks to adjustable straps, and the quick-release ballast lets the diver drop weight in a hurry. Buoyancy depends on the inflator and bladder, but the listing gives no lift figure. The soft nylon shell packs small in a bag.
