Cressi Scorpion Back Inflation BCD
The Scorpion is a black-inflation jacket designed to be very comfortable when worn, like using a traditional backpack. In fact, thanks to its modular designed the diver will not have the feeling of wearing a heavy and uncomfortable harness. It is designed to be very versatile for all types of diving, with a sturdy but lightweight construction at the same time (2,45 kg | 5.4 lb size M) and with a low transport volume but robust and very flexible. The main innovation is the orientation of the weight pockets. Instead to be horizontally and to occupy the space destined to the pockets, they are vertically located in line with the tank, behind the pockets, and perfectly integrated into the profile of the jacket. Having them aligned with the body and perfectly located on both sides will increase drastically the control of the buoyancy, increasing stability and making it easier for any movement. The harness system, completely independent of the bladder, provides absolute stability of the B. C. D. on the diver and completely releases oppression of the chest, axillary and abdominal area due to the expansion of the bladder to the outside of the dorsal area and surrounding the tank. The design and arrangement of harnesses make it completely unisex. The shoulder straps are padded and they have an anatomic design like the traditional backpacks, for ensuring stability and comfort. The seams are internal to avoid friction even diving without a wetsuit. The ventral strap is developed with a new important concept. For tightening the straps you have just to pull them moving forward, not laterally like the other BCDs. It's way easier for controlling the fit of the jacket. It features 2 large zipped pockets that are positioned laterally and they are padded for maximum comfort. High-capacity dorsal air chamber (19 kg size M) but with an external volume of stowage always contained, thanks to the elastic containment tensioners that have as an additional mission to facilitate the emptying maneuver and avoid displacement of the air during the dive that It would cause instability. It has a foldable structure, useful for storage. Fully covered harness with a comfortable neutral buoyancy padding made of a closed-cell material that avoids the accumulation of water or air and, therefore, reduces the inherent buoyancy of the jacket and facilitates quick drying. Direct System Inflator: push-button with wide clearances with respect to its seat to avoid the blocking action of the sand grains. Vacuum button with sealing using a silicone washer. Push-button integrated into the profile to avoid unwanted inflation when pulling the hose to empty. New very resistant corrugated hose of very progressive curvature. New upper low profile exhaust valve with a non-return valve that prevents the entry of accidental water. It features 2 exhaust air valves front-controlled. 4 D-rings made of EBS. Fabric made of 420 Denier nylon.
