Dive into an unparalleled experience with the Mares Vector 1000 AT, a BCD designed for demanding divers. This iconic Mares model, enhanced with the revolutionary Airtrim® system, offers precise buoyancy control and exceptional comfort.

Buoyancy Control with the Airtrim® System

The Airtrim® system integrated into the Vector 1000 AT allows you to manage your buoyancy with unparalleled precision, regardless of your position underwater. Forget traditional inflators, enjoy intuitive control and increased breathing comfort.

Safety and Redundancy: Twin Exhaust Valve

The Twin Exhaust Valve system ensures rapid and efficient venting in all situations. In addition to the lower overpressure valves, this system offers additional safety and total control of your buoyancy.

Adaptability and Personalization: MRS (Option) and Trim Weights

The integrated MRS (optional) weight system allows you to distribute weight optimally for perfect balance underwater. Trim Weights pockets allow you to further refine your configuration. This system is compatible with most standard scuba tanks (DIN/Yoke).

Perfect Comfort and Fit: QAS and BPS

The QAS (Quick Adjust System) ensures quick and precise adjustment of the BCD, even with gloves. The BPS (Back Protection System) offers optimal lumbar support for increased comfort during extended dives.

Robustness and Durability: Cordura® 1000 and Nylon 420

FAQ - Mares Vector 1000 AT BCD

What is the difference between the Airtrim® system and a traditional inflator?

The Mares Airtrim® system uses a pneumatic mechanism to inflate and deflate the BCD, offering more precise and easier buoyancy control. Unlike the classic inflator, it allows you to adjust buoyancy regardless of the diver's position, improving comfort and safety.

Is the MRS weight system included or optional?

The MRS (Mechanical Release System) weight system is optional. This means you can choose whether or not to add this system to your Vector 1000 AT BCD. If you opt for the MRS, it will allow you to integrate weight pockets directly into the BCD, improving your balance and comfort underwater.

Is the Mares Vector 1000 AT BCD suitable for beginners?

Although the Vector 1000 AT is a high-performance BCD, its Airtrim® system may require some getting used to. It is therefore more suitable for intermediate or experienced divers looking for precise buoyancy control. However, a motivated beginner can learn to use it quickly with appropriate training.
