Aeris Jetpack BCD
Excess baggage fees for domestic US carriers exceeded 3.5 BILLION dollars in 2012. Many divers know the pain at the airport of turning up with a big, bulky bag – putting it on the scales and looking the other way while the check-in agent figures out whether they are going to charge you additional fees is often a common and an unwelcome start to many a diver’s holiday. As a result, many divers are choosing to leave their gear at home and rent. Worst still (in the eyes of the world’s dive equipment manufacturers at least), many have stopped buying kit altogether.
According to Aeris Vice-President Doug Krause, “As a manufacturer, this is a challenge and opportunity we set out to address. However, rather than follow the trend of sacrificing materials and features in a travel BC to take another half-pound out of the dive bag, we decided to take the BC out of the bag altogether. Why take a product that already has a harness and backpack and shove it in a bag when we can use it to carry all the other gear?”
Krause continues, “Divers are clamoring for something new and different – the Jetpack meets and exceeds those demands in a very specific and direct way. Any traveling diver will tell you that rising baggage fees are making it difficult for the average diver to fully enjoy the dive travel experience. The Jetpack isn’t just a solution – it’s a revolution for both dive travelers AND dive retailers.”
SCUBAPRO launches an exclusive offer of its EVERFLEX YULEX® DIVE steamer, the modern plant-based generation of diving suits made from FSC-certified natural rubber. Besides this innovative material the advantages of an EVERFLEX YULEX® DIVE suit are fewer seams, panels for a better fit, unrestricted range of motion and the Blue Diamond Span inner fleece lining for maximum thermal protection. This makes the EVERFLEX YULEX® DIVE not only incredibly comfortable, but also a further step towards protecting our ocean.

SCUBAPRO launches the GHOST, STEEL COMP, STEEL PRO masks and the ESCAPE snorkel in new colours
Diving equipment is black – that used to be the case. Whether for identification, individualization or simply because it looks good – coloured equipment has become an integral part of the diving sector.
SCUBAPRO started using coloured accents many years ago – with success! Starting with the signature Hydros PRO and Seawing Nova, a range of coloured masks, snorkels and fins followed, and recently the interchangeable Supernova Blades, Scuba Skegs and various other accessories were launched in colour.
Now SCUBAPRO is expanding the colour range in 3 mask models and a snorkel to include turquoise, pink, orange, yellow and blue, in addition to the standard black and white.
Freedivers and scuba divers can now choose the STEEL COMP, STEEL PRO and GHOST masks in 7 colours and the ESCAPE snorkel in 8 colours. Whether colour blocking or tone-in-tone – there are no longer any limits to individual colour creations.
