Modular Fit & Exposure Suit Adjustment Tips
When sizing for cold-water Canadian diving, measure yourself wearing your primary exposure protection (7mm wetsuit or drysuit undergarments). Thanks to the Hydros X’s multi-point adjustable cummerbund and quick-release shoulder buckles, fine-tuning your fit between warm-water tropical trips and cold-water Pacific Northwest dives is fast and straightforward.

How to Measure for Your Scubapro BCD
- Chest / Bust: Measure around the fullest part of your chest or bust, keeping the measuring tape horizontal and under your arms.
- Waist / Cummerbund: Measure around your natural waistline where the BCD waist belt and cummerbund sit comfortably.
- Torso Length: Measure from the top of your shoulder down to your waistline to ensure the back inflation cell sits properly on your lower back.
- Between Sizes? If your measurements fall between two sizes, we recommend selecting the larger size if diving primarily in thick cold-water exposure gear, or the smaller size for warm-water tropical diving.
