The Aquaride is a scuba diving BCD that combines a traditional structure with great ascensional capacity due to its particular pattern that oversizes the lobes and is extended to the hips.
Its profile is especially hydrodynamic, which turns it into a jacket with an unusual relationship between ascensional capacity, stowage volume, and underwater facility of advance.
It’s also a very balanced model in terms of lightness, resistance, pocket capacity, and comfort.
This all-water jacket incorporates the 2.0 version of Cressi's weight system Lock Aid System, now just as safe and easy to manage but with a lighter structure that allows using the jacket also without the weight system.
The Cressi Aquaride Blue Pro BCD is a dual-purpose BCD that is great for travel and so incredibly versatile, it can be used for a wide assortment of diving. It's light and can be compacted enough to be packed for your warm water trip to the tropics. But it also houses enough lift, weight capacity, and room for maneuverability to be used with a dry suit in cold-water conditions. It's an all-around BC for any occasion.
The Aquaride Blue Pro is constructed with durable 420-denier nylon and can stand up to the daily use of a professional diver. But any level of diver can use this BCD; it's trimmed down style makes for easy usage and comfort. The Blue Pro features a hard-pack frame with plenty of padding for comfort and offers adjustable shoulder straps that are unaffected by the air bladder for a better fit. This also makes the BCD incredibly easy to don. For even more comfort, the cummerbund and chest strap are elastic so even when your air bladder is full, you're still feeling comfortable. The Aquaride Blue Pro also incorporates three dump valves for any position you may encounter: two shoulder valves and a rear waist valve. Plus, the new integrated lock aid system is a super smooth, secure integrated weight system with a quick and easy release mechanism. The releasable pockets accommodate 20 lbs (9kg) of weight
Although travel and dual-purpose are usually trimmed down on the accessory side, the Aquaride Blue Pro does not heed this information. It incorporates non-releasable weight trim pockets on the tank strap with a capacity of 8 lbs (3.6kg) of lead for better buoyancy control. Six stainless-steel D-rings are readily available for all your gadgets. The Blue Pro also provides two generously large zippered pockets to house all your additional accessories. The Cressi Aquaride Blue Pro BCD is a fantastic all-around BCD that can be used by divers of all levels and can be your one and only BCD for any type of diving you choose to do. Adjustable sternum straps, along with both torso adjustment and waist straps, are equipped with squeeze-style side release buckles for easy donning and doffing. This jacket style BCD provides 18 to 42.7 lbs (8.2 to 19.4kg) of lift, depending on size. Buoyancy control is facilitated with Cressi's power inflator equipped with a standard 3/8" threaded low-pressure quick-disconnect hose. The BCD weighs from 7 to 8.3 lbs (3.2 to 3.8kg), depending on size, and comes with an owner's manual.

Had my first dive today with this BCD it was great. The weight pockets work awesome. I used 18 lbs. If you have to use this much weight I recommend using the back pockets also. On my first dive, I put everything in the the front and while I was at the surface, it wanted to push me forwards. On my second dive, I split the weights up and it was much better. I highly recommend this BCD
