I feel bad bagging on Aqualung’s Zuma BCD so I’ve decided to offset that negative post by praising one of their other BCDs, the SeaQuest Black Diamond.
First, it’s tough. I love the D-rings and the weight-integration system, but more importantly, everything about it fits and works as expected. Is it as light as the Zuma? No. Does it pack down as small? No. But, for an extra couple pounds, you get a BC that works and feels like a BC should.
There are, of course, many great BCDs on the market today, but the Black Diamond I believe is one of the very best.
