Info on the Aqua Lung Pearl i3 BCD

The Pearl i3 is best ladies BC ever built by Aqua Lung. It features an all-new air cell powered by Aqua Lung's revolutionary i3 technology. The hybrid air cell combines a jacket style with a back inflation unit that completely surrounds the backpack. The front lobes are sleeker and low profile. The Pearl i3 retains Aqua Lung's most notable BC features such as the integrated sports bra and SureLock™ weight system.

Features

  • Integrated i3 controller for easier, single touch control for both inflation and deflation
  • Multiple dump features allows upper and lower dumps to activate simultaneously when depressing the i3 lever
  • Flat e-valves reduce drag and keep the BC streamlined
  • The one-way valves incorporated into the flat e-valves prevent water from back flushing into the BC
  • The pull down oral inflator is easy to deploy and use. It can easily be removed should you need an access port for rinsing the inside of the air cell or should you want to attach an Airsource
  • The patented integrated sports bra provides added comfort, security and stability
  • The patented SureLock™ weight system offers unsurpassed ease of loading, security and ditching of the weight pouches
  • The large pull-down left pocket is just one of three zippered utility pockets that allow you to stow your accessories.
  • A clever "Octo-pocket" (patent pending) can be found on either side of the jacket
  • Four stainless steel D-rings provide attachment options
  • A small pocket on the lower left lobe allows the installation of a retractor (sold separately)
  • Knife mounting grommets allow you to attach any one of the fine Deep See knives
  • A padded, rolled collar provides comfort around the neck
  • A unique Multiset™ adjustable waistband allows up to 6" of adjustment
  • An over-molded carrying handle allows for convenient transporting
  • Features two lobe-retaining D-rings that can be used to hold the lobes stationary during weight pouch insertion
  • A traction pad (patented) built into a proprietary contour backpack prevents cylinder slippage
  • Outer air cell constructed of Armorshield™ Cordura® for increased wear and fade resistance
  • PLEASE NOTE: Squeeze Lock knife not included
  • PLEASE NOTE: Trim pockets are not fitted to the Extra Small size

I like the design of this womens specific BCD

I like the design of this womens specific BCD. The integrated sports bra makes it really comfortable to wear. I really like the position of inflator lever it is unobtrusive and easy to use. I always find the descent easier than all my dive buddies who are holding up the inflator/deflator device whilst all I have to do is press the lever on my jacket and I am away. The integrated weights are easy to insert and remove and more comfortable than a weight belt. If you need to add extra weight there is a pocket at the front and a couple of small pockets on the back of the jacket. Overall this is a great womens specific BCD I would recommend it to all women divers.

Really like this

Really like this, it is very comfortable. If you think it's only for more curvy ladies, I can assure you it also fits great on the not so well-endowed! The sizes are pretty accurate too. (Size 'small' is a 10-12 UK size). Plenty of D-rings and the inflator lever is easy to use for fine tuning your buoyancy. Weight pockets easy to fit and very comfortable. If you need an odd number of weights, e.g. 3kg, there is a zipped pocket on the front cummerbund so you can put one kg in there rather than have uneven weight on each side. Pockets are smaller than the men's version, and there is only one standard pocket, the other one is a drop down/fold away pocket below the inflator. You need to be careful not to catch the inflator lever when taking something (e.g. camera) out of the drop down pocket. Overall, I love it!
