BCD completely modular
This buoyancy compensator is provided with an AUDAXPRO Technical Modular System (T.M.S.), which allows changing the BCD standard configuration according to your needs. Thanks to the Audaxpro T.M.S. you can shape, configure and integrate your BCD as you like. You can, for example:
Adapt your jacket to your physical shape
Adapt it according to the type of immersion
Change its components with any other Audaxpro BCD ones
Upgrade your equipment with a wide series of accessories
BCD with a totally adjustable and super-accessorized harness
AREA51 is a technical buoyancy compensator with a variable structure. It has a comfortable, fully equipped and anatomic harness. It is a Wide Fit scuba BCD, so it covers up to your pelvis. This feature makes it longer than any other Audaxpro BCs, with the exception of the ELEVEN (which is similar to it), and longer than any other BCD on the market. Moreover, its special harness can be easily set and adjusted to your body while wearing it. The BCD total adherence to your torso gives you a great stability and influences positively your posture helping your swimming and consumption while diving.
A different version for every different need
Audaxpro BCDs have been designed to ensure the best performances in every kind of diving immersion. For this reason, AREA51 is available in different versions, one for every different need.
