SCUBAPRO announce Hydros X BCD
Hydros X – A breakthrough in design and comfort…
The Hydros X is the world’s first front-adjustable BCD to offer a fully injection moulded Monprene® thermoplastic shoulders and back pad. This unique feature allows the shoulders to conform to your body like a tailored fit, creating superior comfort.
Add the full-sized backpack and stainless-steel Super Cinch tank band and you also get excellent stability both on the surface and at depth. The bladder, made out of EndurTex high-tenacity nylon fabric, is extremely lightweight and durable while offering generous lift capacity, aided by lower back bellows.
In the event of damage, several components on the Hydros X are detachable and easily replaceable. Its flat-buckled quick-release integrated weight system and rear trim weight pockets work together to offer a more comfortable and balanced ride during your dive. The two big zippered cargo pockets offer great gear-carrying capacity and are easily accessible even when the weight pouches are fully loaded. Two stainless steel D-rings provide clip-on points for additional gear. In addition, the Hydros X features a Multi-Mount Accessory Matrix with multiple D-Ring and mounting points that easily attach various dive accessories.
Features
- Hydros X is based on the same modular Monprene® shoulders and back pad design made popular by the Hydros Pro back-inflation BCD.
