  • Simple and efficient design
Color: Black/Blue Size: Large
This is my second Cressi Start. These are very well constructed, sturdy and simple to use. I find these BCD's to be the perfect BCD for casual diving. This BCD provides excellent stability and allows for micro-adjustments to your depth and trim with ease. This is the perfect BCD for beginning divers and a great go to BCD for veteran divers in non-technical dives. ... show more
