CRESSILightest Travel Scuba Diving BCD - Folds Completely to Save Space - Fully Accessorised: 8 D-Rings, 2 Wide Side Pockets, 2 Rear Trim Pockets - High Lift Capacity - Travelight: Designed in Italy

I have completed 14 dives wearing my Cressi Travelight and I couldn’t be happier! It performs perfectly, and is exceptionally easy to pack and travel (flights) to diving destinations! It packs down to a small size (comes with bag for storing when packed), is lightweight, and fits easily in a suitcase. The best part is that it’s easier to dive knowing exactly where all of the necessary components are, every dive, without having to think about it. The bottom air release pull is on the side, slightly forward, for super easy access. My wife rents her BCD and I’ve noticed that almost every BCD has that pull in a different spot, anywhere from the middle of the back to the side. I’ve yet to see, on her BCDs, the pull slightly forward. The integrated weights are perfect! I don’t like weight belts, which a majority of dive shops (where I’ve dived) use. They’re not comfortable at all and are cumbersome. Plus, I save $10 USD on every 2-tank dive, because I have my own equipment. I only need 10lbs in weights to dive, therefore it’s easy for me to pack and travel with my weights, too.If you love to dive, are tired of having to familiarize yourself with the BCD every time you rent one, and want a BCD that’s easy to pack and travel to you dive location, this is the perfect BCD for you!! I highly recommend it!!

This is a great travel BCD. Compact and appears to be good quality. Only thing is that it doesn’t have a ridged back tank mounting plate. If you don’t have a strong back this is not for you. If you do and you travel this is perfect

This is a great option if you are traveling with your equipment. It's not too heavy, and is well made. I love it.

I Love how packable this bcd is. This is my second one. And I’m glad I purchased this: long info: bought my first one in 2019 as I prepped for an Egypt dive trip. Packed great. Functioned great. The cons were the pockets. So far back with zipper oriented from back to front using the pockets was problematic. But I made it work with zip ties extending the zipper handles. I used it a lot also in Channel Islands. Great bcd.COVID dampered my diving a lot and while prepping recently for a trip that was originally planned for 2021 I decided to get the next size up. Per Cressi I was still in the range for the small that I had but I know I gained weight and always felt that I was maxing my bcd as it was before weight gain…. What a difference the medium made!!! Everything else is still the same so I can find all that I need with muscle memory (ie: dump valves etc) And: the pockets now actually work! I think cressi under sizes what you need. I should have had a medium all along.All that to say I’ve purchased it twice and would do it again. I love having my own bcd out of country and this packs so well and still manages the harsh conditions of local diving as well.

Perfect for avid travelers that need compact and lightweight features. I’ve used it a few times while cruising around the Caribbean and now I am taking it farther to South America! Great product, and I love all the extra rings!-- Update May/2024: While this BCD is great for light traveling, I am upgrading it for a more sturdy BCD from Mares instead due to the fact that the for being very lightweight it also doesn't support much weight itself and I feel not secure attaching a professional camera and housing to this BCD as it makes it shift in position while under water.

Great Quality & Works Very Well.

I bought two BCD’s for my wife and myself. This is an extremely dangerous product and should never be sold. My wife almost drowned using this product it doesn’t have proper buoyancy. My wife spent three days in the hospital in Mexico and is still being treated by doctors in Dallas. I used the information in the spec sheet to choose the correct BCD. Despite having the BCD fully inflated her head was barely above water and definitely a big issue in choppy seas. This item should never be sold

The BCD was what I expected. It was definitely lighter and easier to travel with. One thing that was a bit disappointing was that it only came with (1x) integrated weight pouch. I reached out to the supplier on their website about this the day it came in, but haven’t heard back from them.It’s not real functional with only one weight pouch, because it would throw the balance off dramatically. I asked if this was correct and if I needed to purchase another weight pouch.I’m 6’ tall and 230 lbs, so I went with an XL for use with my wetsuit (5mm), and this is right on the edge of the lower weight range but over the upper weight range for the large. With the BCD inflated it fits better, of course. I’ll have a test run with it in two weeks and know more. I’ll also update this post if they ever get back to me on the weight pouch.**Update** I heard from customer service, they requested pictures and a copy of the invoice. I sent them immediately. After not hearing back for 5 days I tried to call, with no response. I sent an email back to them with no response. Customer Service is garbage. I just ordered a second weight pouch and I’m guessing I won’t hear anything from them.
