Hydros Pro Men’s Back Inflated Scuba BCD Recreational and Travel Scuba Diving

Best bcd I own! All your gear fits great in the carry bag. Awesome for travel.

Great BCD I travel with it regularly. Everything including my regulator and accessories fit in the bag I use as my carry on!!!

I recently received my Scubapro Hydros. I have not been out to sea with it yet, but I have a big trip next month and I am preparing. The reviews and online videos don't do the BC justice - it is fantastic in person. It has a wide array of "hard points" to customize the bindings you want to add to ensure you can lock down your equipment exactly the way you want it. Protip: You want to drop $20-30 on a good set of metric Allen wrenches and straight tip pliers so you can fashion the attachments you want to add. The various rings and connectors are amazing and fasten on easily. Also, don't worry about the color choices - you can buy any of the various colors as a separate purchase and quickly swap out the colors to make the BC look exactly as you want it, even if the current choice is not in stock. I will update this review in 2 months when I've completed my first week of dives with the BC, but I have every expectation that it will be a great experience.

I've only taken it on 5 dives so far but I absolutely love it. Whether it's this one or another make and model get your own BCD, nothing like owning your own gear knowing how it works and putting stuff exactly where you want it. Things I like: 1) Don't even use the purge button anymore, I just pull on the hose or use one of the dumps 2) Puts you in perfect trim. 3) Love the integrated weights and the tank trim weights. I think I put 3 lbs in each weight pocket and 2lbs in each trim pocket. I've been able to shed 2 lbs of lead using this BCD because it's near neutrally buoyant and I believe I can shed even more. 4) It looks awesome. The dive center I went out with kept on telling me how much they liked it 5) It's modular so if one piece goes bad just replace that one part. 6) Dries almost instantly 7) I definitely consider this a travel BCD, packs really nice Some people complain about faceplanting on the surface but I had zero issues. First time I went into the water with this thing I was nervous that I'd be forced faced down and that I would have to start sucking on the regulator while I waited for everyone to get in. Well I had zero issues and I'm a new diver with less than 50 dives. I just made sure to not fully inflate it and leaned back a bit and I was extremely comfortable until it was time to go down or get picked up. The only thing I don't like is the price but I plan on keep this thing for quite some time UPDATE: I have this BC for a while now and still absolutely love it. BTW I'm 5'7" and when I got I weighed more, probably 192lbs. The medium fit me just fine then and now that I've lost weight it still fits very fine.

Best BCD I've ever used! Definitely top of the line for a reason. I always owned jacket style BCD's. I'm in love with this back inflate. However, we had a rough start..... When I got it, there was a leaking shoulder dump valve. I was in a hurry before a diving trip to Curaçao so I brought it into my local shop. They changed out the O-ring on the dump valve. Was perfect after on my trip!! I highly recommend it over the newer generation Hydros Pro! They worked the kinks out of this one long ago.

Súper cómodo y práctico. Viene con mochila, latiguillo y cinturón para buceo sin traje.

It was a great product. It was on the snug size for me. Had to exchange for another size. I had no room to grow into it.

Bought this for my boyfriend and it is such a good BCD. He is a new diver and it has already helped his buoyancy tremendously. It folds up so small - perfect for travel, yet is durable and great for cold PNW waters. It also looks really cool (which is not a good reason to buy scuba gear, but it's certainly a plus.) It came with a CD which walks you through the set up and features. Really nice touch. I'm definitely going to be getting one for myself now.
