It\u2019s not cheap; but it will probably last you a lifetime if it\u2019s anything like the other BCs carrying the BUDDY tag.<\/p>\n<h6>Charles Hood \u2013 SCUBA, the official magazine of the BSAC<\/h6>\n<\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"pgc-402-20-1\" class=\"panel-grid-cell\">\n<div id=\"panel-402-20-1-0\" class=\"so-panel widget widget_black-studio-tinymce widget_black_studio_tinymce panel-first-child panel-last-child\" data-index=\"51\">\n<div class=\"textwidget\">\n<h2>THE AP TRAVELWING<\/h2>\n<h3>Over-delivers at under 3kg\u2026<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Built with our own ultra-tough, ultra-light fabric OceanSeal800<\/li>\n<li>Two sizes S\/M &amp; L\/XL<\/li>\n<li>Integrated weight pouches with Cargo pockets option<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Like the ever-popular Commando Escape BCD, the AP Travelwing is made from lightweight, ultra tough materials: laminated 1000 denier Cordura on the pockets and exterior panels and welded high spec 800 denier \u2013 OceanSeal800 on the wings. It\u2019s twice as tough as most other BCDs on the market, travel or otherwise.<\/p>\n<p>The integrated weight pouches hold up to 5kg of hard or shot lead secured with a 25mm buckle and large velcro flap. The inner pouch features chunky grips for easy, secure weight handling. If you don\u2019t get on with integrated weights, you can easily convert to cargo pockets.<\/p>\n<p>Included as standard is the time-proven integrated shoulder dump which releases air at a slower rate than the other two dump valves allowing one-handed fine-tune buoyancy control. We have included an easy-to-locate floating dump valve knob at the lower rear valve. The one at the chest is made from negatively buoyant material, again, for ease of location.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><!--vgRowWrapper--><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"pg-402-21\" class=\"panel-grid\">\n<div class=\"vgRowWrapper\">\n<div id=\"pgc-402-21-0\" class=\"panel-grid-cell\">\n<div id=\"panel-402-21-0-0\" class=\"so-panel widget widget_black-studio-tinymce widget_black_studio_tinymce panel-first-child panel-last-child\" data-index=\"52\">\n<div class=\"textwidget\">\n<p>The new wing is extremely comfortable with or without a suit, with very generous padding at shoulders, waist and back. It also features a cummerbund that is size adjustable at front and rear to perfect the fit. The waistband can be tightened with either hand from either side.<\/p>\n<p>For a travel BCD you get a generous 14.5kg of lift and multiple lightweight anodised aluminium D rings 4x50mm prebent rings on the waist, 3x25mm on the shoulders and 2 x 25mm internal pocket D rings (very useful). To top off the hardware and equipment management, there\u2019s also a hose-retaining clip.<\/p>\n<p>It has a neat rubber and webbing carry-handle at the rear, a cylinder-retaining strap and a single cylinder camband, which solidly secures all single cylinder sizes up 15 litres.<\/p>\n<p>All-in-all, the new Travelwing is a lightweight package that delivers the high performance, quality and comfort expected of an AP bcd.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><!--vgRowWrapper--><\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>COMPARE COMMANDO BCDs\u00a0 Which one is right for you? &nbsp; &nbsp; Download A detailed guide to sizing for all of our AP BCDs &amp; wings.
