SUBEA / Decathlon manufactures these BCD jackets, sometimes even cheaper than this when they renew the stock and sell all the previous models...
Just for my curiosity, does any of you have a first hand experience of these BCD jackets? Are they good?
 
I'd be interested if anyone has bought one of these too, as the back inflating one (SCD 500B) with the integrated weights looks really nice.
 
Here is my thread on the same topic and I posted a review for it as well after using it.

Sorry to resurrect an old thread but has anyone tried this BCD?

I've been given a Decathlon voucher from my work and am wondering whether to purchase one.

Last dive trip I did my instructor let me use his spare backplate and wing and it was just so much better for me.

Imho, for that price, I'd give 50eur more and get a proper BP/W since it would be a lot easier to modify/fix if needed.

If for instance you're getting it for let say, 100eur. Then go for it. But It's not worth it in my opinion

Thanks, any recommendations at that price?

Because I've got this voucher it's more a choice of buying the bcd or some new badminton equipment.

Cheapest BPW you can find. No nonsense, no nothing.
