Weight iNtegrAtioN FeAtUreS

Your BC comes equipped with either a Hook and Loop or SureLock Inte-
grated Weight System. The SureLock weight pouches are secured with a
mechanical locking mechanism. The Hook and Loop weight pouches are
secured with hook material on the pouches to loop material on the pockets.
Either weight system supplements or replaces a conventional weight belt.
This unique feature allows you to quickly jettison either one or both weight
pouches in the event of an emergency, thereby maintaining better control
over your rate of ascent. The weight pouches can be easily reloaded into the
BC pockets while you are wearing the BC.
