Seasoft Seahorse BC
The Seasoft Seahorse BC is a one size-fits-all BC, perfect for travel because it only weighs slightly over 7 pounds, yet it has 42 pounds of lift!

The Seahorse BC is, however, fully capable of any type of diving. It is weight integrated and will hold 15 pounds of soft weights in the two separate pockets (for a total of 30 pounds) mounted in-line with the tank for superior surface flotation and stability. This weight is ditchable using the right-shoulder mounted yellow ripcord. Pull the ripcord to arm’s length and you have ditched the weight out of both pockets—one hand; quick release.

Your tank is held securely by our Triple-Point Mounting System™, (TMS) that employs a valve safety strap and two stainless steel hold-fasts. TMS™ keeps your tank stable and virtually eliminates tank sway and pivot.

If you are looking for a BC that will grow with you, the Seahorse BC will fit a 10-year old child and yet still fit them into adolescence and adulthood. The Seahorse BC will fit most 80-pound to 300-pound divers with only minor adjustments that require no tools and a minute or less to make.

There is also many other features such as a comfortable carrying handle, a removable crotch-strap for those needing one (especially for kids), multiple stainless steel D-rings, adjustable chest straps and a low profile design to minimize drag.

The Seahorse BC is also designed with most of the lift near the bottom of the BC. On the surface this puts the diver’s head well above the water level for increased safety and comfort.

IST S-680 Gloves
The new IST S-680 gloves are designed for divers needing maximum warmth and durability for the most demanding of underwater environments. For the best in thermal protection the gloves are constructed of 5mm thick neoprene that gives the most amount of protection while still allowing good mobility of the fingers. Key to the glove’s thermal protection design is its semi-dry construction with extra-wide wrist bands to hold cold water intrusion to an absolute minimum. Not only is the thickness of the neoprene key to the glove’s durability but also the Kevlar protection on palms and fingers. Kevlar is the same ultra-tough material used in bullet-proof vest —maximum protection with flexibility. Ergonomically designed, the IST S-680 gloves are now available at IST dealers in sizes XS through XL and, unusual to dive gloves, also in XXL size. New design gloves similar to this glove with Kevlar, are also available in less thick neoprene.
