Best BCDs - 2019

[@DanBowkley]

I'm still really partial to the Zeagle Ranger. Wing, awesome weight dump system (it's fiddly to reload, but it only dumps the actual weights) and it's super comfy. Oh and mine is pushing 20 years old and still holding up beautifully.

[@autorog1234]

Love my Brigaide

[@chrish5286]

Think i might be saving up for one, they look tough as nails!

[@jakeman1397]

Got one second hand, with weight, for £60 on ebay, awesome BCD! Crazy amount of lift as well.

[@kaiwoessner6558]

It is my first time diving tomorrow,i am 13 years old and have been watching your channel for a long time any advice.

[@Turnerburner2727]

Just keep your cool underwater man the worst thing you can do is be impulsive and good luck

[@djdesistorm]

Have fun, stay safe and enjoy :)

[@gflaig9131]

I just did my confined water dive today and I'm doing my open water dive tomorrow!!

[@paulwhite3637]

I don’t know why everybody has a hate on for the jacket style BCD’s.......is just because the BP/W people have made you feel silly for wanting something you were trained in, and you don’t want to look like a beginner? Having said that I have a Hydros Pro and love it.

[@DSO1994]

The Outlaw is not just great for travel. I use mine UK drysuit diving with a 15 ltr cylinder no problem. It is light, strong, well designed, comfortable, & minimalist . . . all you need in a recreational BCD. The bladder has plenty of lift too. Oh & it looks a work of art.

[@josebuencamino]

I love my Aqualung Axiom. It takes a 200 step staircase to get down to the Dive site and it's a huge relief to have all that weight on my hips instead of my shoulders.

[@grifini27]

Been using an axiom for years and love it and Aqualung customer service is excellent.

[@michaelbuch8418]

After 30+ years of diving I just changed BCD to a wing and bought a Ursuit Phantom Wing and Comfort Harness, because it's a more comfortable version of technical diving harness.

[@torbenschubert]

Love my Scubapro Hydros Pro - really changed my comfort during diving 😊

[@uncatila]

I find the horse collar cheeper $200 more stream line, more modular. You can skin dive with a small pony as power inflator or as a guard against shallow water blackout. It's what the navy uses. It's clean and it's mean and lean.

[@alisonanthony1228]

I love my new Cressi Skorpion. Light and durable and a amazingly comfortable and form fitting. An outstanding BCD.

[@cherylbabineau8190]

Loving the ScubaPro Hydros. Feels so comfortable on and it forms to my back. The way it grips lets me actually do barrel rolls underwater without tank shift. It is the only neutral BC so average weight loss it 6 pounds. I was diving with 22 pounds and now only need 16 in my 7mm wetsuit. Pockets on a BC are useless once you put the unit on so I love that the BC does not have them. There are lots of great add ons and I got the large thigh pockets that easily attaches to the BC and my thigh giving me a large pocket similar to my drysuit that i can easily get into while diving. The chest strap can be moved up or down to find my comfort level and the weight pockets/belly strap can be lengthened or shortened. For travel i can remove the pockets and put on the harness making the unit ideal for travel. The back pack that comes with it i have packet my BC, reg, computer, mask, snorkel and fins in for easy carry on.

[@yechielrechtschaffen5257]

Once you use a back plate and harness, you can't go back. I use the hollis. But the xwing looks great too

[@moniqueanderson6527]

Hey there guys! I love watching your reviews because I learn something new every time! Would love to get a take on some of the women’s BCDs out there.

[@scuba4families447]

Hi Monique, I own the Tecline Peanut BCD, you can see my review on: kzbin.info/www/bejne/m4ino5xnoalkbqs

[@alterzus]

I like my hydros pro but after around 400 dives in it the last 2 years some downsides to it aswell. I use air2.5 and when I need to split air or fill my SMB, the band holding in the deflator makes it a very uncomfortable angle which has resulted in me cutting it but now it hangs loose instead. In the water it is superb but I work as a diving guide from a boat and always get picked up with a boat so on the surface it wants to put me on the back with the face under the surface but it has it common with all the wings. A safety buckle for the tank mount is another thing they missed that contributed to bruising and pinched fingers

[@jimryan4056]

I like my Scubapro glide. Lots of pockets and D rings.

[@sayittrue9570]

ive also got the hydros pro,great bcd that fits like a glove both to my wetsuit and drysuit

[@eskimo555]

Love the XDEEP

[@ggukrzy]

Just purchased a Hollis Elite 2 and love it, but my first BCD is an aqualung jacket and still used it after 10yrs

[@patryka11]

I love my Mares Bolt. Great semi Wing BCD

[@bartvandenboom2300]

I got the seac pro 2000. Really Nice system that doesn't squeeze

[@lichtfang-photography]

my favourite is and remains the hydros. I love it. There's an extensive test on my channel.

[@anthonylargeanus9401]

Please do a tech BC/wing video

[@jeremyong4626]

I am rather pump and the issue with BCDs are that it will move above my stomach so I need a crotch guard to strap down. What are the best BCDs for these? Going after the wing type with integrated weight

[@dannyholden5361]

Jeremy Ong hydros pro has an optional crotch strap

[@farisabdulkhadir1581]

I’ve got both the xblack and hydros pro which are amazing. However my hydrospro seems to be very very fragile and I’ve had to replace parts as the monoprean at the shoulder link and the weight pockets on the side was tearing up due to the weight.

[@sandeepdutta84]

I require Hydros Pro BCD....do u ship the product to India..once I order from your website..

[@acewings221]

What about Zeagle?

[@dh5645]

acewings221 They are probably not sponsored by Zeagle 🐠🐠🐠

[@faranger]

Cressi is my favorite

[@mako9324]

I use the aqualung Zuna, I would highly recommend it to any diver who wants a streamline kit, it does hav only one small pocket though, so it’s kinda hard to store gloves

[@cannon_1239]

Why am I watching this. I'm only done with the online part I go Thursday.

[@dalisandbooks8293]

I’m 5’ feet tall. Those things look like they’d swallow me up lol 🤓🤣 Seriously considering getting certified.

[@taitiniac]

I’m a small 5’1” and I have the same problem 😂 I turned to the Xdeep, ghost which is great as it can adjust a loooot to fit you. Would recommend the standard one (without the buckle) as it can adjust even more than the deluxe (with the buckle) Plus...one of a nicer looking design compare to other on the market

[@tessahaanskorf]

I am a 4'9 divemaster. Absolutely no problems! I only need to bring my own fins

[@jesspeoples3292]

You should do it Learning how to dive was the best decision I have ever made.

[@IreneWY]

Being small means the oxygen will last you ages. Never get a tall buddy 😉

dive without BDC is the best....

[@itsyaboimat2393]

Guys what about something like the Rapid diver bcd or Hollis R.E.D as a first diving bcd

[@Teampegleg]

DIR Dudes: Have you heard of our lord and savior the Hog harness? ;-P I'm just joking DIR dudes, please don't drown me.
