I love mine!

By SANDRA W.

 -  Reno, NV, US

I have about 275 dives on mine over the last at least 10 years. It still looks almost brand new and have had absolutely no issues with it. I just finished 27 dives in the Maldives. I dive with between 14-16 lbs of weights. I would highly recommend one.

Easy to travel with. Light

The fun, travel-friendly Zuma will find favour with those divers who are tired of paying excess baggage fees. This ultra-light, weight-integrated, back inflation BC has everything you need, yet lacks weight and bulk. Once you lift it, you'll feel for yourself that a size ML/LG weighs less than 4.75 lbs. (2.2 kg), with the airway and weight pockets included! Extremely lightweight to help eliminate those dreaded excess baggage fees. A size ML/LG weighs less than 2.2kg (4.75 lbs). Great packability f flat or rolled. The Zuma fits nicely, along with the rest of your dive kit into the Aqua Lung Departure carry-on bag. Innovative tank support system eliminates the need for a hard pack. The tank band has been lowered to integrate with the waistband. A valve strap pulls the top of the cylinder in towards your center of gravity. This relieves the shoulders and transfers the load to the hips. The bottom line is proper fit, comfort and stability. Be sure to try one on with a cylinder.

SureLock II Mechanical Weight Release System (patented). The SureLock II weight pockets align themselves. Just insert the pocket until it "clicks". A simple, single pull release is all that is needed to jettison the weights in an emergency. The SureLock II weight pockets can accommodate 20 lbs. (9 kg) capacity in all sizes. The Zuma also has optional non-releasable weight capacities of 10 lbs. (4.5 kg). Only 4 sizes are all that's needed to cover from XXS to XXL. A bladder retraction system is used to pull in the sides of the bladder during deflation. This keeps unit streamlined and reduces drag. An adjustable chest strap can be raised or lowered on a rail system. Set it for your personal comfort. Proprietary flat valves are streamlined, eliminating drag. The fold-down, easy-access pocket is perfect for a small flashlight or a fish I.D. slate.

BC features 4 D-rings to attach all your accessories. Lower right pull dump is perfect for head first descents or cruising on a horizontal plane. Sculpted padded shoulders for comfort. Padded spine and lumbar support for comfort and stability. Knife attachment points are found on the left lobe which will accommodate many of the Aqua Lung knives. This location provides easy access to the knife. Right shoulder pull dump provides an additional dumping option. Rolled neck collar prevents abrasion on the neck.

The Zuma comes equipped with Aqua Lungs Power Line Inflator with an increased fill rate which is now, one of the highest air flows in the industry. The Power Line is an environmentally sealed unit for less maintenance, has integrated hose clips for attachment to the LP hose for a streamline and low profile. The inflator is equipped with a cable activated rapid exhaust at the top, simply pull down on lower unit to dump air. The Zuma Travel BCD provides 22 lbs. (10 kg) of lift in sizes XXS, XS, SM, MD and 34 lbs. (15.42 kg) of lift in sizes ML/LG and XL/XXL. Available in multiple colors. The Zuma Travel BCD comes with a low pressure 3/8" threaded hose and owner's manual.

This product can only be shipped to U.S. addresses.

Questions & Answers

Questions about this item:

Shopper  Would this fit a 5'5, 135lb female well?  And if so, what size?
MICHAEL G  I purchased the Zuma as a gift for a 5'4", 130lb female. She loves it! Perfect fit. The small/medium should fit you well.
NEAL S  I would judge size based on the amount of lift you need. It’s not a jacket style BCD it’s a plateless wing. The different sizes have completely different lift capacities, the shoulder straps are adjustable- If the waist is too small you can get a cumber-bun extension.
Iuquio O  Hi, heavy a green color?
Sue C  HI, Not sure I understand your question but it is very lightweight and packs easily.
Shopper  Does it comes with the new handles or need to replace them after the recall? Is this the new model?
YAN G  These weight pockets are post-recall. No need to replace them.
Steve S  This will come with the new handles. This BC is post recall.
Richard H  Hey, it comes with the replacement handles. No need to take the BC in to get them replaced.
Richard H  Hey, it comes with the replacement handles. No need to take the BC in to get them replaced.
DENISE P  It comes with the new reinforced handles, the ones that are okay- not the ones that were recalled.
zhipeng w  this bc made in 420D material??
Monica s  yes.
CHARLES L  The bottom strap looks low, I can't quite figure if this will be a advantage or not? I've been diving for many years, not quite sure what to make of this. Anybody?????
CHARLES L  Thanks Monica, haven't backed packed since my Vietnam days. Now it makes since
Monica s  Lowering the strap does alleviate pressure from your shoulders and shifts it to you waist, feels more similar to a backpacking harness.
