Glide BCD

This new Scubapro Glide BC will allow you to experience extremely comfortable diving. The Scubapro exclusive jacket style wrap-around air bladder retains its cradle like shape even when fully inflated. Fully adjustable, it comes with an integrated weight system and a wide range of exceptional features. The Glide is a weight integrated design with both releasable weight pockets with capacities from 20 lbs. to 24 lbs. (9 kg to 11 kg) and non-releasable rear trim weight pockets with 6 lbs. to 10 lbs. (2.7 kg to 4.5 kg) capacities. The BC comes equipped with Scubapro’s a stainless-steel cam-action buckle system for easy adjustment and sure grip. The BCD bladder is made from durable 420-denier nylon with a polyurethane external coating, a urethane internal laminate and is radio frequency (RF) welded for airtight integrity.

A custom fit is ensured with the BCD’s fully adjustable cummerbund, torso, waist and sternum adjustable strap assemblies. All straps are equipped with squeeze-style” side-release buckles for easy donning and doffing. The BCD provides ultimate comfort with its rotating torso buckles, and padded back pack. Attachment and storage or accessory items are not a problem with the 4-stainless steel D-rings and 2-zippered side pockets. The BC also has grommets for mounting of a BC knife.

To control your buoyancy the Glide X comes with a large shoulder overpressure relief valve with manual pull dump cord and Scubapro’s Balanced Power Inflator Mechanism. Scubapro’s Balanced Power Inflator provides a high inflation speed, especially at depth. Inflator has different shaped inflation and purge buttons for easy use even in extremely low light or murky water conditions.

Inflator is also equipped with a rapid pull dump mechanism with cable pull for easy deflation of the air bladder. Included with the inflator is a 3/8″ threaded low pressure hose for attachment to the first stage regulator.

The Glide X BCD comes in multiple sizes with lift capacities ranging from 22.5 lbs. to 38.2 lbs. (10.2 kg to 17.3 kg) and weighs 8.20 lbs. to 9.8 lbs. (3.71 kg to 4.44 kg) depending on the BCD’s size. BCD is available in multiple colors, and comes with an owner’s manual.
