The Mares Dragon BCD has a strong legacy of reliability and resillience and this version follows that. Updated with the new SLS weight pocket system and new materials this Dragon will keep you diving in rough waters.
Fusion Bladder
The shape and design of the bladder combines the best parts of a wing style bladder and a jacket style wrap-around for a comfortable BCD with plenty of lift that holds you in a good position under the water and on the surface.
The bladder wraps around your cylinder, holding it steady on your back without twisting or turning and also holds you horizontal in the water when the BCD only has a little amount of air in it. When you fully inflate your BCD on the surface it will hold you in a head up position so you save energy in the water waiting for the RIB.
Weight approx. : 4.5kg

This is a great BCD. Very well made and fits like a dream. The sls weights system is easy to use and very secure and the inflator hose is very ergonomic

I ordered this BCD for my son. We selected this one as it fitted our budget, but most importantly it holds 6k per pouch, whereas most of its competitors only hold 4K. It seemed slightly fiddly to get the hang of inserting the pouches ( it helps to read the instructions!) it was used for UK diving this weekend and we can’t fault it!

Bought this as my first BCD fits like a dream with plenty of lift and comfortable to boot... Definitely recommend this BC to anyone either new or experienced

The best

After 600+ dives I decided it was time for something new. The additional soft back support is very comfortable and but for the cylinder weight you can’t feel it on your back. Also very pleased with the all round inflation cushioning/wrapping around the body.

I had been using the normal BCD at the dive Centre. Absolutely loved this when I got in the water. I felt so comfortable and bottle sort of lifts away. Took a bit to get use to the SLS , but great

The Dragon SLS Jacket is comfortable, convenient, innovative and incredibly robust. The tank is equipped with the new SLS ballast system - Slide and Lock System. The features of this system are: a stable hold on the ballast, increased holding surfaces, active mechanical locking system, quick release mechanism, guide tunnel for easier insertion, audible feedback of correct insertion. The SLS system has a capacity of 4+4 kg on sizes XS to S, and 6+6 kg on sizes M, L and XL. There is also a stretch pocket with a neoprene panel made from the same neoprene used for wetsuits: it is abrasion resistant and has a strong horizontal zip. The fit is excellent and the performance is enhanced by the separation between the bag and straps. This permits a wider range of movement and greater stability of the bag itself, even when making adjustments during the dive. The bag is joined to the shoulder strap by a buckle that can slide on a strap, thus ensuring that there is no traction on the shoulders during inflation. The Dragon SLS Jacket allows you to change the position of the ribbon that holds the corrugate in two different positions, to satisfy both those who want maximum ease in releasing air by raising the corrugate and those who prefer a corrugate that is more restrained and close to the body. The main features of the Jacket Dragon SLS are: - Exceptionally stable and comfortable, yet robust and durable. - Bag separated from the shoulder straps for greater comfort when inflated - Adjustable corrugated tube counter strap - High lift sack with "Dragon" wings - Intelligent Trim Weight system positioning - SLS ballast system - New 50 mm swing buckles - Extra-large pockets with elastic panels - Adjustable belly band - Single plate backrest suitable for single and twin cylinders - Visual confirmation of correct insertion of the weight pockets - Customisation label on the weight pockets Dragon SLS Tank Technical Specifications - Weight system: SLS - Thrust: 200N (Size L) - Material: Cordura®420 - Eyelets: 5 x Stainless Steel D-rings - Weight: 4.5kg (Size L) - Backpack: Monoplate - Weight system Capacity: XS-S:4kg/9lbs - M-XL:6kg/13lbs"
