Specifically designed for the Avelo diving system, this state-of-the-art buoyancy-control system isn’t like a traditional BCD. It uses a specialized pump to offset the diver’s buoyancy by adding water to a flexible membrane within an Avelo dive cylinder—the Hydrotank (sold separately). As a result, less bulk and ballast are required for diving. The system features enhanced electronics, an improved Shearwater battery and an onboard Swift GPS transmitter. It fully integrates with Shearwater computers using the Avelo mode to monitor gas information and to log dive entry and exit coordinates. The Jetpack is equipped with a traditional front-adjustable harness with swivel buckles at the shoulders. It offers a streamlined, comfortable fit and includes multiple D-rings for attaching accessories. The Jetpack is available in two sizes: S/M and L/XL.
