HOG Hybrid Pro 2 BCD The Best of Both Worlds: Unmatched Stability Underwater, Effortless Comfort at the Surface Can’t decide between a back-inflate wing or a traditional jacket-style BCD? The HOG Hybrid Pro 2 BCD eliminates the compromise. Built on the rugged, high-performance foundation of the original Hybrid Pro, the version 2 advances hybrid buoyancy design to give you a streamlined profile underwater and absolute comfort when waiting for the boat. The Hybrid Advantage Traditional jacket BCDs offer comfort at the surface but can feel bulky underwater. Back-inflate BCDs offer a perfect horizontal trim underwater but tend to push a diver face-forward while floating on the surface. The HOG Hybrid Pro 2 solves this by combining a back-buoyancy air cell with unique chambers that wrap smoothly under the arms. Underwater: Buoyancy stays close to your center of gravity, delivering an effortless, streamlined horizontal trim and rock-solid stability at depth. At the Surface: When fully inflated, the under-arm wrap-around chambers dynamically shift your center of buoyancy, keeping you securely, vertically, and effortlessly upright without the dreaded "face-plant" tendency. What’s New in Version 2? The definitive upgrade for the Hybrid Pro 2 centers on utility, storage, and weight distribution: Upgraded Quick-Release Weight Integration: Features newly designed, secure, and intuitive quick-release weight pockets capable of holding up to 10 lbs per side (20 lbs total), giving you instant ditch-capability in emergencies. Built-In Expandable Utility Pockets: Never sacrifice storage for weight capacity. Positioned right on the weight integration panels are built-in, expandable utility pockets. They sit flat and streamlined when empty, but expand easily to hold your slates, backup lights, or SMBs when you need them. Key Features & Specifications Advanced Hybrid Aircell: Maximum lift paired with a streamlined profile that wraps under the arms for premium vertical surface positioning. Ergonomic Harness: Features a heavily padded backpack with integrated lumbar support and a molded plastic handle for easy tank transport and gear handling. Articulating Shoulder Straps: Mounted to swiveling buckles to automatically conform to your body shape and movement, paired with a dual-position adjustable chest strap. Depth-Compensating Cummerbund: Elastic-reinforced waistband automatically adjusts to wetsuit/drysuit compression, ensuring a snug, slip-free fit at all depths. Premium Utility Options: Equipped with 6 heavy-duty, black-coated stainless steel D-rings and a tactical MOLLE-style attachment panel on the right shoulder strap for infinite accessory configurations. Buoyancy Control: Three strategically located over-pressure relief / pull-dump valves allow for easy venting regardless of your swimming orientation. Trim Weight Pockets: Includes rear non-releasable trim pockets to help you fine-tune your perfect horizontal swimming position. Heavy-Duty Construction: Built with rugged, abrasion-resistant materials engineered to handle demanding dive environments season after season. Whether you are a recreational diver looking for maximum comfort or an advanced diver demanding perfect trim control, the HOG Hybrid Pro 2 delivers professional-grade performance without compromise.
