PRE-ORDER: Estimated delivery after January 2026

Scubapro Hydros Pro 2:  Lighter, Stronger, Compact

The Scubapro Hydros Pro 2 BCD is a next-generation, modular wing-style BCD that builds on the original Hydros Pro, focusing on improved comfort, faster drying, easier travel, and smarter weight handling.

Its Ergo-Lite Backplate is 25% lighter than the original. It features an innovative Monorail Weight System, Instant Dry technology, and a new Super Cinch 2 tank band for a lightweight, customisable, and travel-friendly diving experience in warm or cold water.

The lighter, stronger, modular and compact travel companion engineered for divers who demand the best.

With a modular design, premium materials, and travel-ready features, the Scubapro Hydros Pro 2 BCD is built for ultimate performance in all dive conditions. It's suitable for recreational, warm-water, and cold-water diving.

Scubapro Hydros Pro 2 BCD is also available as a complete system with weight pockets. You can choose between standard or mini.

Key features:

• Intuitive Monorail Weight System: Weight pockets slide and lock into place via a monorail system for easy, single-handed operation. Simply pull the grey D-handle to release. Pockets are sold separately.

• Dries Quickly After Use: The heavy-duty quick-dry bladder’s Instant Dry Technology enables the BCD to dry almost instantly, making it ideal for travel due to less water retention and lower post-dive weight.

• Long-Lasting Durability: Built to last with a fabric-free Monprene® gel harness and double-coated fabric bladder designed to resist abrasion and fading from pool chemicals, saltwater and sunlight. Anti-abrasion Cordura® fabric on the dorsal weight-wing adds further protection against abrasions.

• Lightweight Ergo-Lite Back Plate: The Ergo-Lite back plate is 25% lighter than the Hydros Pro’s and features a body-contoured shape, soft padding, and dual top and bottom handles for easy two-handed loading.

• Comfortable, Ergonomic Design: Body-contoured shape and 3D ergonomic design hug the body for a weightless feel. The Torso Flex Zone automatically adjusts to your torso length for excellent comfort and freedom of movement. Unrestricted internal air-flow design reduces air trapping, so you enjoy greater manoeuvrability and can easily deflate the BCD from any angle or position.

• Designed for Easy Tank Swapping: Super Cinch 2 tank band is simple, ultra-durable, and incredibly easy to use and adjust. Enables fast, easy tank switching, whether you’re swapping tanks between dives or switching between aluminium 80s and steel tanks when travelling.

• Smart-Pack Design: The shoulder and waist straps fold flat against the backpack and wrap around the wing for easy transport and storage.

• Articulated Shoulder Straps & Kit-Up Assist: Shoulder strap hinges lock in the open position for easy donning, then fold flat to allow the Hydros Pro 2 to pack down for travel.

• Stays in Place During the Dive: Body grip gel helps the BCD grip to your body, preventing shifting and riding up during the dive.

• Streamlined Construction: Tri-bungee retraction system with 2-stage inflation delivers a more streamlined, compact air-cell underwater, providing even air distribution and higher lift capacity at the surface.

• Neutrally Buoyant: Near-zero inherent buoyancy means less lead and better control underwater.

• Self-Draining Weight Pockets: Weight pockets are self-draining for an easy, hassle-free experience. Standard size holds up to 4.5 kg per pocket.
  
  
• BC-4-Life Modular Design: With the BC-4-Life Modular Design, components are fully customisable and interchangeable, simplifying repairs and extending the BCD’s lifespan.
  
  
• Customise with Accessories: The Multi-Mount System on the BCD features multiple D-rings and mounting points to configure your BCD easily. Optional Multi-Mount Accessory Plates and Hydros Bungee Sets are sold separately and easily attach knives, lights, pockets, SMBs, hoses, and more.
