Best out of 3

[kjthomas84]

Okay so Ive looked at the MAres Kalia. I really like it because its very comfy lots of padding for long shore dive walks which i do frequently.

I looked at the Zena which is very streamlined.

I rented a Diva Seaquest which i thought was great to.


Any comments or suggestions...

Maybe like give pros and cons....

even other bc suggestions.

Judging from the feedback I've gotten from our female customers, I'd say the Zena. They say that because of it's unique form fitting style, that it's the most streamlined and comfortable of the Made For Women BCDs. It also supports the weight of the tank/weights so that those long beach walks shouldn't be a problem. Another BCD you should check out is the Dive Rite TransPac. While it's not made especially for women, because of it's versitility, many women use it. It has many more options then any of the BCDs you have listed, and it is extremely comfortable. Plus it offers a very low profile.
Your best bet is to take each out for a test dive, and see which suits your needs best. Remember, don't just look at what you need to dive today, think 5 years from now. It doesn't make sense to have to buy 2-3 BCDs over the next few years, when a good choice the first time will grow with your needs.
Hope this helps.
Safe Diving,
