IST Alpha BCD [J-1000]
Retail : £349.95
- The new IST flagship buoyancy compensator device Alpha is a do-it-all, top of the line BCD like no other. It was designed to provide the best in buoyancy control, comfort, stability and style. IST has achieved these fundamental objectives by introducing the Personal Harness System (PHS). Unlike a traditional jacket style BCD, PHS functions independently from the air-cell and it can be adjusted to bring a personal fitting that only custom-made gear can compare. Stability on or below the surface is further enhanced by the tank stabilizing plate and cam strap, which prevent unwanted tank roll. This has to be a part of the essential equipment any serious diver should have.
- Superior 840D nylon shell.
- Advanced Ballast removal System II (ABRS II) takes up to 6kg (13lb) of weight each side.
- Cold water capable power inflator with pull dump.
- 2 rear quick air dump valves.
- Adjustable sternum strap
- Stainless steel D-rings
- 2 conveniently placed snaps with quick release buckles for easy equipment attachment.

IST Artemis Ladies BCD [J-1300]
Retail : £344.95
- Recognizing the different needs between male and female, the beautiful Artemis BCD was created exclusively with the lady divers in mind.

- Sojourn is a significantly lighter and compact BCD which the travellers will appreciate.

The simple but effective integrated Ballast Removal System (BRS) removes the need of a weight belt on most occasions.

It can be used just like any heavier example on many weekend underwater excursions. Advanced features include:
