Questions & Answers

Shane C : With this being around 6 pounds, does it fold or compress enough to be considered a travel BCD?darrick c : Hello Shane, no, this BCD would not fold to a more compact form.
SHELBY F : Does this come with a secondary o2?darrick c : Hello Shelby, that would be an add on cost. This doesn't come standard with an Octo/Air 2 system.
ARTHUR H : I am a colder water dry suit diver.  I usually wear 24 lbs of weight, split 8 in each dumpable bc weight pods and 8 lbs in trim pockets on the tank retention strap.  How would I do the same with this bc?Mario C : included pockets will hold 20 of those pounds you an add trim weight pouches to tank straps to get remaining inMARIA N : Hi, I have this BCD for several years, wear 16 lbs; 5 lbs in each dumpable wight pods and use two DGX Trim Weight Pocket attached to the front BCD strap, with 3 lbs in each. The tank retention strap can accommodate similar or larger pockets, there is enough space there.MICHAEL K : I use 16 lbs too. No problem. 8 in each bag.
SUSAN M : How do you add trim weights to this if this has no pockets? Do you put them on the tank strap?Theo K : This style Cressi BCD's have normal zipper pockets. These pockets are not intended for trim weights. The tank-strap trim-pockets are a separate product and widely used in addition to the 'gravity release' pockets on this trimvest.TIM H : Yes, you can either put a hard weight on the BCD strap (may have to adjust to center weight) or buy a weight pocket and leave it on the strap (can use either soft or hard weight this way. Hope this helps...DON E : That is an issue. I think my issue was old and fairly heavy fins - I have since gotten newer, lighter fins and have not had a problem. I supposed putting weights on the upper BC straps might work, but I personally don't care for external things clunking around, and which might get caught on something. It does seem like an oversight, and I would have liked to see small weight pockets!
Shopper : Does this come with the hose to connect to the first stage?Mario C : Yes it does. Most BCDs will come with an inflator quick disconnect hose as well as the corrugated. At item page it states it What's in the box: BCD LP Hose

Great BCD

Great BCD. Fits good and the air is balanced. I like that there are weight pockets instead of pull outs that don?t always snap in correctly. Pockets are nice sized. The inflator hose is a bit short but you get used to it quickly.

Bang for the buck

We get these BCD for our diving courses , so far we are pleased for the good quality and great look, there are cheaper and most expensive units but we feel like this is the best gear for the money.

Low volume

Cheap but not good. Very low volume, you don?t float enough at the surface, and slow to deflate.

a great bcd

Everybody needs a great little BC and this one meets the bill. It has a hard system that connects it to the tank, durable covering , and a no fail integrated weight system. We live in Cozumel and our dive gear usually goes on 500 dives every year. Durability is what we look for, not ease of travel.

Worth Every Penny

DANG! This is BC is well worth the money. I have used a lot of BCs that cost a lot more and this thing keeps up just fine. It fits very well, the moving parts function perfectly and it has all the accessories you generally need without any of the stuff you don't. The only weird part is the weights being in an integrated pouch that will jettison your weights when opened but not like most other modern BCs. Its not a down side, just something different.

Good value in a BCD!

Purchased my Cressi Aquapro from LeisurePro about 5 years ago and have 100+ dives with it. It is a good balance between weight, function, durability and price. Light enough to travel with. Lots of rings in the right places for attachments if needed, pockets are a good size and tank strap is sturdy. Nice to have weight pockets and not to have to wear a weight belt anymore. Would be nice if it had trim pockets, but those are easy to add. Shows minimal wear after 1-2 dive trips a year.

Cressi Aquapro BCD...good value!

I bought this BCD to replace a similar Cressi BCD I have had for over 10 years that had started having air leakage issues at one of the valves. I only am able to dive 2 or 3 times a year, so spending all the extra money for the bells and whistles didn't make a lot of sense to me. This BCD does the trick and is very affordable as well. It inflates and deflates rapidly and is very comfortable. There are only 2 gripes I would have with it...#1, it only has a single tank strap and if you aren't careful to get the tank strapped on really tight, you can have the tank slip out, especially when you just get out of the water after a dive(had slippage once out of 6 dives with it so far). #2, it doesn't have a left sided hose clip to hold my gauges, so it tends to float around a bit and prevents you from having things tighter around your core. I fixed this some with bringing it down through the BCD velcro strap with the inflator hose, but it still wants to float around some. Other than these 2 small issues, it worked flawlessly and I will be diving with it hopefully for many years.

Well-sized, good quality.

Got this for our 12year old daughter's first bc. It fit well, seemed to be good quality, and was easy to use. The sizing chart was accurate. After having always used rental bcs, she enjoyed having her own. I expect to get quite a few years out of it, as it seems it will fit her for a while.

Great BC

This BC is perfect for the price. I like the folded pocket for the weights on each pocket, and it hold the tank securely. When surfacing and filling with air, the BC doesn't push you forward me like some other BC's I have tried. Good purchase. I'm glad I have it.

Cressi Aquapro + BCD

Cressi Aquapro + BCD

Cressi Aquapro + BCD

The Aquapro + is a reasonably priced BCD that offers the same features as higher-end buoyancy compensators. Its durable construction, made of 420-denier urethane laminated nylon and self-draining mesh fabric, ensures long-lasting dependability. The BCD includes two unique weight pockets that use quick-release Fastex buckles to hold over 10 lbs (4.547kg) of weight. The back support is padded for comfort and provides proper cylinder stability, while the independent suspension system allows the BCD's air cell to fully inflate away from the diver. The BCD is equipped with three over-pressure relief/dump valves, adjustable straps with quick-release buckles, and various D-rings for accessory attachment. It comes in multiple sizes with lift capacities ranging from 16.9 lbs (7.7kg) to 36 lbs (16.3kg) and is CE certified to EN 250-EN 1809 standards.

• Material: 420-Denier Urethane Laminated Nylon
• Material: Self-Draining Mesh Fabric

Aquapro + BCD

The Aquapro + is a moderately minded jacket style BCD yet has all the features of higher priced buoyancy compensators. The durable 420-denier urethane laminated nylon and self-draining mesh fabric construction will give years of dependable service. The Aquapro + has two unique gravity ditch-able weight pockets that are attached to the zippered accessory pockets with one on either side of the BCD. The weight pockets closures are "squeeze style" quick-release impact and corrosion resistant Fastex buckles. Just squeeze the buckles and the weights are released. Each pocket can hold over 10 lbs (4.547kg).

The back support is rigid for proper cylinder stability but is fully padded for comfort. The harness assembly is an independent suspension system that allows the cylinder and the diver to keep proper stability and avoid cylinder shifting on the back, while allowing the BCD's air cell to fully inflate away from the diver not causing restriction or crushing effect as with non-ergonomic designs. Adjustable sternum strap along with both torso adjustment shoulder straps are equipped with "squeeze style" quick-release buckles.

The BCD has three over-pressure relief/dump valves with two located on the left and right shoulders and a third lower valve on the rear right of the air cell. All three can be manually dumped two with pull cords and the other with the power inflator mechanism. BCD is equipped with two stainless steel, 2" (50mm), D-rings on the shoulder straps, and two techno-polymer plastic, 2" (50 mm) D-rings on the pocket lobes, with two additional snap hooks for attachment of Instruments and accessories. BCD comes in multiple sizes with lift capacities ranging from 16.9 lbs (7.7kg) to 36 lbs (16.3kg), is equipped with the Cressi's streamline Commando Power Inflator with cable activated pull dump valve and 3/8" threaded quick disconnect hose. Shoulder overpressure relief valve with pull cord is provided for trimming of buoyancy. The inflator mechanism is environmentally sealed for greater reliability and less maintenance. BCD weighs 5.3 to 6.6 lbs (2.4 to 3kg) depending on size and is CE certified to EN 250-EN 1809 standards and comes with an owner's manual.
