Questions & Answers

Shopper : Does the Tusa Tina BCD have rear trim pockets in addition to the integrated front weight pockets?darrick c : Hello, yes, it would have a pocket that would sit on each side of the BCD by the tanks.ANDRUS, A : Yes, the Tusa Tina BCD has two trim pockets on the back plus the two integrated front weight pockets. Great BCD and very comfortable.
ROBERT J : Would the Tusa Tina in XXS work for a 5'1" 80 pound "tween-ager," or could she make the XS work?Vida J : Hmmm considering that she is still growing, perhaps the XS is the route to go. It can also tighten and loosen a fair amount. Personally, I am 26, 125 lbs, and 5’5” and love my size small BCD. Perhaps you can ask for her measurements and compare on the size chart.
Shopper : Why Did You Choose This?KERRY S : Saw video and it looks good for feamlesSARAH B : After reading the reviews I decided not to go cheap on my 1st BCD and the reviews were what I was looking for

Perfect BCD!

I finally replaced my a second-hand BCD that I've had since 2017... It did its job but as I was approaching my 30th dive I wanted to get all new gear- BCD, regulator, first stage, octo, computer console/gauge. The gear came within a week of purchase and I forgot that BCDs are meant to have padding! I love the fit, how it fits on my torso, the back grips the tank ensuring its security, and the emergency whistle was an extra plus that I had not even noticed. Fast forward- I went to the Caribbean where I was enrolled in a field school that specialized in maritime archaeology with the goal to explore new sites for artifacts. I had been to the island earlier this year and the professional staff was releaved that I got all new gear. My buoyancy was the best it had ever been and I felt so comfortable in this BCD. Attached is a picture of me in my gear after measuring an anchor.

TUSA's BC0403 Tina is a BC with a high-cut waist designed for women eliminates discomfort when wearing lead weight.Ergonomically and comfort designed, the new BC0403 features quick-drying shoulder and back pads with enhanced cushioning. Also incorporates TUSA's new Advanced Weight Loading System (A.W.L.S III), Repositionable stainless, resin D-rings and snap hook design for personal customization. TUSA's Independent Harness System, enhanced lumbar and comfort back pad provide a secure comfortable fit. The newly designed waist belt adjusts effortlessly, and the two large BCpockets are equipped with double zippers providing easy access to your accessories. Two additional pockets designed to house your gauges and safe second stage "Octo".

A.W.L.S. III (Advanced Weight Loading System III):
A secure single locking integrated weight system that allows you to quickly and easily secure your weight pockets. The A.W.L.S. III allows the diver to insert weights into the weight-cartridges and load them easily into the front of the BC jacket. The Tina weight pockets can hold up to 17.6 lbs (8kg) of hard or soft lead.

Independent Harness System (I.H.S.):
The Independent Harness System isolates the BC jacket's harness from the air cell, tightly supporting the tank even with changes in air cell inflation/deflation. The I.H.S. prevents tank slippage and eliminates any gaps between the tank and your back.

Ritetite Buckle:
The Ritetite Buckle is a two (2)-position cam strap for quick and easy adjustment. While the strap is being looped through the buckle, the buckle stays in place without needing to be held. This allows for more control and stability. This feature is part of all TUSA BC's.

Ultimate Stabilizing Harness (U.S.H.):
TUSA's Ultimate Stabilizing Harness completely-eliminates tank roll and delivers an amazing fit. The U.S.H. securely holds the air cylinder in place with optimally placed rails and brings the tank closer to the body increasing tank control while reducing weight.

Waist Support System (W.S.S.):
The Waist Support System significantly enhances comfort and fit by dispersing the weight load around the hips. The W.S.S. integrates the adjustable shoulder harness system with the rear stabilizing plate and cummerbund to effectively unload the hips while ensuring a snug fit.

BCD is made from durable 500-Cordura nylon with an internal urethane laminated air cell.Torso adjustable shoulder and sternum straps provide excellent comfort and adjustable waist strap with cummerbund provides precise adjustment of harness. All straps are equipped with "squeeze-style" side-release buckles for easy donning and doffing. Sternum strap also comes with a handy built-in signaling whistle. Buoyancy is controlled by TUSA's patented O.P.E.V. Quick inflate/Deflate System. Trimming buoyancy is easy with 2-dump/overpressure relief valves. BCD provides 21.4 lbs to 32.6 lbs (9.7 kg to 14.8kg) of lift and has a dry weight of 6.1 lbs to 7.1 lbs (3.1 to 3.4kg) depending on the BCD size. The TUSA Tina BC comes with a 3/8" threaded inflator hose and an owner's manual.
