Description for AP Valves Buddy Ranger Sport BCD Jacket:The evolution of the BUDDY line continues with the introduction of the BUDDY Ranger - a high spec integrated weight BCD that combines the best of traditional and contemporary design. Developed from the market-leading BUDDY Explorer, the Ranger shares its slim-line cut, comfortable support and top build specifications. Diver-friendly design at its best.
Twin-bag construction, choice of emergency valves, mini-air cylinder option, and patented stud system giving added strength and free air-flow for excellent underwater manoeuvrability. All backed up by the usual first-owner life-time warranty.
By popular demand we have designed an integrated weight system for divers who prefer to dive without a weight belt. The Ranger features two secure quick-release weight pouches either side of the BCD - which can take up to 10lbs (5kg) each. The weights sit extremely comfortably with the cushion of the BCD between body and pouch. Two fixed weight pouches at the shoulders give you the option of adding 2lb to 4lb (1-2kg) trim weights to perfect in-water orientation.
