The Ranger is a scuba classic and has been going strong (with minor tweaks over the years) since 1994. Renowned for its heavy-duty build quality, this BCD will be with you for years to come. We admire the Ranger for its flexibility — it can be used for both technical and recreational diving.
Techies might not love some elements, such as the quick-release system, but must admit it’s not a bad wing and handles twins no issue.
Our Overall Review
4.7
Reasons to buy:
Flexible wing-style BCD that can take a recreational diver to technical diving
Super hard-wearing nylon and quality stitching
Steel D-rings in clever places
The bladder is well-positioned and aids good trim
One of the most comfortable BCDs we’ve ever tried
Two zippered pockets for extras
Customizable colors and extras
Screw-fit LPI (easy to unscrew and thoroughly clean the interior of the wing with freshwater)
Custom XXL options available
Reasons NOT to buy:
Pockets are on the smaller side but this is a minor point and there are plenty of D-rings to clip accessories to
