MARES Unisex Adults SLS Slide and Lock Ballast System | Robust Zipped Pocket, Easy to use with Thick Gloves | Small Size with 4 kg Capacity

SECURE BALLAST SYSTEM - The Mares SLS Slide and Lock System - Small represents a state-of-the-art evolution in ballast technology, delivering an efficient, secure, and intuitive weight management solution for divers; engineered with a mechanical interference-based design, this system ensures the weight pockets stay firmly attached, eliminating the risk of accidental release. EFFORTLESS INSERTION - During insertion, the unique system pushes the holding prongs into position, where they lock securely in place and prevent retraction; when it's time for release, a system of sliding surfaces activates, drawing the prongs inward and allowing the male and female buckles to detach smoothly. ROBUST, ZIPPERED POCKET - The Mares SLS Slide and Lock System features a robust, zippered pocket specifically designed to withstand the demands of diving; this heavy-duty zipper not only ensures the longevity of the pocket but also provides a secure enclosure that prevents weights from shifting or accidentally falling out during dives. CLEAR VISUAL INDICATOR - The SLS Slide and Lock System incorporates a clear visual indicator that helps divers verify secure attachment of the weight pocket. When the pocket is properly locked into place, a green closed padlock icon appears in a designated viewing window on the BCD, replacing the red open padlock icon that signals an unsecured pocket. ENHANCED SAFETY - The Mares SLS Slide and Lock System offers enhanced safety through its advanced locking mechanism, which actively prevents the accidental release of weight pockets during dives; the SLS system is designed for ease of use with thick gloves, ensuring full functionality in colder or deeper dives; the large, ergonomic handle and well-designed slider mechanism allow divers to engage and disengage the locking system smoothly
