This is a great BCD that fits great and works flawlessly, but the only complaint that i have is that there is only one pocket to store items in.

I bought this for my wife and she just got certified and once she understood how to use a "wing" style BC on the surface, she was totally sold on the product. This BC is very streamlined with great features that are beneficial to the user. The weight pockets are soooo easy to use and the unit is very comfortable. From the tank strap to the adjustability of the shoulder straps, this design is high quality.

I have had trouble finding a comfortable BC. Most BCs that are made for men are way too constricting in the chest area. This BC (specially made for women) has swivels on the chest straps that make for a great fit. The only drawback to this BC is its lack of pockets or many D-rings.

My delivered the very next day … prompt is an understatement. All items were their original manufacturer pkg, neatly packed with every item ordered in one shipment. I needed to ask a few questions and called customer service. I am happy that I did - AMAZING. They were knowledgeable about all of their products made recommendations based on my needs and didn't try to sell me things I neither wanted nor needed. That's awesome!!! Oh and yes VERY friendly!!! ++++

After looking at many BC's this one is perfect. I am a small framed woman and had trouble finding something that would not be too bulky but offered everything I needed to dive comfortably. Would recommend this to anyone who does not want a bulky BC and likes having easy flexibility while diving

It was a gamble for me when I was buying this BCD because I never dove with back inflated BCD before. It takes couple dives to get used to coordination on the surface with back inflated BCD. Now I really like my Ladyhawk (although I bought it for full price). I have used it for a year now (maybe 30 dives) and no complains and no surprises. What I like most about it is that it is small and everything is at the back so that you feel free and your sides are totally open. Now, my boyfriend bought a back inflated BCD (different brand though) because he knows how much I like mine.

Excellent product. Purchased this for my wife. The ScubaPro quality speaks for itself. All of the ScubaPro back inflation BC are a little short on pockets, but lots of places to clip gear or bottles. The BC arrived in 4 days from the order date. Made me wish I had purchased more gear from Leisure Pro in the past.

Great BC
By MIKE S.
I bought this for my wife and she just got certified and once she understood how to use a "wing" style BC on the surface, she was totally sold on the product. This BC is very streamlined with great features that are beneficial to the user. The weight pockets are soooo easy to use and the unit is very comfortable. From the tank strap to the adjustability of the shoulder straps, this design is high quality.
This superior women's BC teams all the technical features you need in a back flotation jacket yet with a female-specific cut and design. This back flotation jacket is thoughtfully tailored to enhance the female diver's experience and represents a new dimension in optimized load distribution, freedom of movement and comfort. A robust and comfortable back flotation jacket that integrates numerous performance features to deliver outstanding comfort and easy handling. The Ladyhawk's retractable air bladder offers ultimate streamlining and significantly reduces drag. The Ladyhawk is equipped with Scubapro's Balanced Power Inflator, has two rollup zippered pockets, Four Stainless Steel D-rings for attachment of accessories, a sturdy Stainless Steel Tank Attachment System, and a comfortable neck roll of soft neoprene with a special foam back pad, making it the BCD of choice.
Back flotation technology positions air bladder in the back, providing exceptional freedom of movement around chest and shoulders. Streamlined air cell technology and automatic volume control of air cell through compression straps provide a low profile throughout the dive. Rotating Quick Release shoulder buckles and adjustable shoulder straps, adjustable sternum strap and waist strap with cummerbund all improve fit. All these straps are equipped with squeeze-style" quick release buckles for easy donning and doffing.
Soft neoprene neck roll and padded back pad provide skin-friendly padding. Firmly padded, flexible cummerbund compensates for changes in the suit resulting from varying depths. Ergonomic harness incorporates anatomically-shaped components to allow for even load distribution. Quick-release integrated weight system offers more comfort and convenience. Pouches accommodate 10lb (4.54kg) each and are secured in specially-designed pockets with oversized buckles. Two rear trim pockets counterbalance front weights and provide a well-balanced swimming position with 8lbs to 10lbs (3.6kg to 4.54kg) capacity depending on BCD size. Built-to-last from 1000-denier nylon outer bladder and 420-denier nylon inner, with urethane laminate interior and radio frequency (RF) welded seams for maximum resistance to punctures and abrasion.
For proper buoyancy control the Knighthawk BCD comes standard with Scubapro's Balanced Power Inflator and has a 3-dump deflation system that enables divers to dump air from a variety of underwater positions. In the up-right position you can use either the left-or-right shoulder pull-dumps with the right shoulder pull cord or the left shoulder integrated cable activated power inflator shoulder dump. When inverted in the water the lower left rear pull dump can facilitate buoyancy trim. Scubapro's Balanced Power Inflator provides a high inflation speed, especially at depth. Inflator has different shaped inflation and purge buttons for easy use even in extremely low light or murky water conditions. The BCD provides 33.7lbs (15.3kg) of lift. The Ladyhawk weighs from 7.2lbs to 8.13lbs (3.261kg to 3.68kg) which is also size dependent. BCD comes with a 3/8" threaded low pressure quick-disconnect hose, owner's manual and is black in color.
