Elastomeric Retraction Band BC Features :
1. DUAL BLADDER: Inflator hoses and Dump valves are interchangeable for a variety of unique hose configurations. The dual bladder model features a total of four (4) pull dump valves located:
a. Diver’s Side bladder: lower left and top right
b. Tank Side bladder: lower right and top left (see figure at right)
c. Colors: Black or Red
2. POWER DEFLATION / ORAL INFLATION: The unique elastomeric bands (use is optional) assist in deflation, but still allow the diver to orally inflate the BC.
3. ELIMINATION OF AIR SHIFT: The OMS® elastomeric bands evenly compress the BC, eliminating the massive airshift associated with non-banded BCs that typically occurs when changing body plane.
4. LOW DRAG / LOW SNAG: The OMS® bands typically retract the BC to a width less than the diver’s shoulders greatly reducing Drag and Snag potential.
5. TRIM ADJUSTABILITY: By adding or eliminating bands in different parts of the BC, the diver can adjust: a) lateral trim to compensate for stage bottles, cameras, etc. b) Horizontal trim e.g. head up, down or level.
