Advantages Good for girls!
Disadvantages Might need a light weightbelt
The Diva LX has been designed with women in mind, and it actually works, with features like no straps crossing the chest. My old BCD was a cheap 'off the shelf' which didn't really fit and tipped me back when inflated at the surface and pulled me forward when underwater. The Diva LX however, is far better than this with a semi-wing design. The pockets are as easy to get into as they're ever going to be, and there are enough D-rings to keep me happy (I'm not very tekkie). I feel quite secure with the weight-pockets, but know that some people don't put all their confidence in them. The trim pockets on the tank cummerbund are quite useful, but I think some people may want to put some weight onto a separate weightbelt that may negate the purpose of an integrated BC for them. Overall it has been well designed with lots of small features like the integration of the direct feed into the dump hose. Compared with my last BC, diving with this is (slightly expensive) bliss.
