Reviews

Frequently Asked Questions?

What is the difference between the Hydros X and the Hydros Pro?

Both share the Monprene harness comfort and modular philosophy, but the X uses an EndurTex nylon bladder and skips the Smart-Pack fold-flat travel system and backpack - a better value for divers who don't need the travel features.

How much weight can the Hydros X hold?

24 lb / 11 kg ditchable in the front pouches plus 8 lb / 3.6 kg non-ditchable rear - 32 lb total, plenty for most cold-water diving.

Can I get it with an AIR2 backup regulator?

Yes - choose the standard Balanced Power Inflator or the AIR2 5th Generation, which doubles as a backup second stage and removes the octopus hose from your rig.
