New
HERA BCD from Oceanic Built Just for Women
After extensive
research, Oceanic’s latest BCD, made exclusively for female
divers, is now available
Oceanic Worldwide, the
leader in diving innovation, has announced that the company’s
latest buoyancy compensator, HERA, is now available. Designed
from scratch with the assistance of more than 300 female scuba
divers, the HERA was created specifically for the female form.
According to Oceanic’s award-winning design team, the HERA is
NOT a man’s BCD that is scaled down for smaller sizes. The
HERA is contoured for the female form. It’s built to combine
function, style and performance and early reviews show that the
HERA is a winner.
The HERA features
Oceanic’s patented Custom Fit Harness that delivers the
ability to custom-fit the BC from the start. Add to this the new
Hybrid Bladder design and there is not a more comfortable BC
available today. The Hybrid Bladder feature combines elements of
a rear-inflation BC and the wrap-around feel of a jacket BC.
The
HERA doesn’t follow the industry trend towards
weight-integrated BCs, it takes it to a new level. With the
patented Oceanic Quick Lock & Release feature (QLR), divers
can carry up to 20 lbs of weight in ultra-comfortable side
pockets. The QLR system provides a simple way to release the
weight should it be necessary. Adding rear weight pockets are
also available for trim and underwater stability.
“This
is one of the most anticipated new products of the year,” says
Oceanic Marketing Manager Doug Krause.“Women have been asking us
to create a product like this for years and the HERA is the
result of all the requests, test dives, focus groups, test
sessions and discussions with female divers from all over the
world. The demand is growing for the HERA since we unveiled it
to dealers at this year’s DEMA Show and we’re pleased to
announce that it’s now available.”
The
HERA is available in four different sizes (XS, SM, MD, LG) and
has a suggested retail price of $479.95.
