It's a Scuba Showdown! We are breaking down the two most common styles of buoyancy compensating devices: the traditional Jacket-style BCD and the modular Back Plate Wing setup. Both have their different applications for scuba diving, but which is right for you?

Also, I'm giving you my single biggest piece of advice if you are looking to invest in your first scuba diving BCD.

I do a lot of different types of dives, so I like to have a well-stocked scuba gear locker to be able to choose the right tools for the job.

Thanks for watching!

James
