Description
The ultimate harness style BCD for all levels of diving from recreational to technical diving. We have been Dive Rite advocates for over 20 years now and rate this products as one of our all time favourites! From its initial design and release in 1995 to today, the TransPac XT has evolved through technology and relentless testing and diving to become one of Dive Rite’s signature products.
Not only do these BCDs look great, they also have many benefits:
- Weight Distribution: The Dive Rite Transpac XT Harness has been designed based on mountaineering backpacks and make carrying a lot of weight on your back easier.
- Versatile System: This package is made from three components; the harness, wing and weight pockets. The size of this Travel Wing is perfect for diving with a single cylinder and also often used with rebreathers. When diving with twin cylinders or side-mount, you wouldn’t need to invest in an entire other set up, you would just need to change the wing component to have something with more lift such as the Dive Rite Rec EXP Wing
- Durability: Dive Rite equipment has been designed for demanding cave diving conditions and it’s built tough! The inflation bladder in the wing is seperate and can easily be changed if you have a puncture incident.
- Customisation: Do you wish you could move the position of the D-Rings on your BCD or add more? Or perhaps the integrated weight pockets just don’t sit in the right place. With this system you can easily customise these things!
- Comfort: If you ask us, a soft harness is the way to go! So much more comfortable than a backplate and wing style, the Transpac XT has Lumbar Support Pad, Ergonomic Shoulder Pads and Wrap-Around Hip Pads.
- Trim in the Water: The harness hugs your torso and will move with you through the water with no flopping and lagging as you turn around. The rear inflation will also help keep your trim on point as you swim below the surface.
- Easy of Travel: This harness system packs down small and compact for dive travel. Is it the lightest BCD to travel with? No, it’s not. There is more stainless steel and less plastic on these so they do weigh a little more than you might expect. But the added weight is absolutely worth the comfort while diving at the other end!
