Aqualung New Pro QD + Sure Lock II

Aqualung New Pro QD + Sure Lock II: OPTIONS: Airsource Inflator with integrated backup regulator, Reflector Kit, Aqua Lung knife attachment, Retractor
COLORS: Black/Blue

A new Pro QD for 2009 that provides a new backpack, additional features and an enhanced cosmetic Air cell (bladder):

A new lower gusset along the bottom perimeter provides additional lift without adding bulk under the arms

The lobes have been angled for a sleeker, more modern look

There is no longer a cut-out to accommodate a backpack. This maximizes the lift without adding bulk. The new backpack fastens through the material

A series of internal ligaments gives shape to a fully inflated air cell thus preventing squeeze

SureLock-II Weight System

The best mechanical weight release system just got better!

You used to have to insert a tab into the slot to engage. Could be challenging while wearing a mask and gloves

Now the pocket aligns itself using a rail system. Just insert pocket until it clicks. You don-t even have to look!

The male portion of the mechanism auto-finds the female portion.

Simple, single pull release

The pull force required to release the pocket has been slightly increased for added security

Patented

In order to effectively demonstrate the SureLock-II, make sure that the tester is wearing a properly fitted BC.

The weight pocket should contain lead or similar items that give it shape.

NOTE - Demonstrating on a table top or while holding the BC doesn-t adequately demonstrate the ease of use.
