Order Summary

    Original RRP: 690,57 €

    Step outside your comfort zone - in complete comfort

    The AP Commando Explorer is a high quality BCD packed with features designed to maximise comfort and allow fine-tune buoyancy control. It is based on the blueprint of the original Commando - and apart from a small difference in the body shape (see below) - it is built to the same high standards in build quality, features and performance.

    The Commando Explorer offers the advantages of reflex technology - the unique AP comfort-fit system which allows you to adjust the jacket fit and customise it specifically to your individual shape - with a one-time simple set-up adjustment in the height position of the waistband, shoulder buckles and the backplate length.

    Buoyancy control is enhanced with 3 super-responsive dump / over-pressure valves, a choice of emergency breathing valve / inflators and the option of a positive-lock integrated weight system.

    • Multiple lightweight aluminium 50mm D-rings - pre-bent to stand-off for easy clip-on
    • 1000 denier twin-bag construction - the toughest build-quality on the market
    • Optional quick-release integrated weight pockets
    • Reflex adjustment - allows you to fine-tune the fit at shoulders, waist and back
    • Ability to upgrade to twinset cambands

    Options include:

    • APV200 Inflator or the Auto Air octo-inflator
    • Cargo Clips (standard) or Integrated Weight System
    • Emergency Mini-Cylinders - available in 232BAR or 300BAR DIN
    • Twinset camband kit (supplied in addition)

    Sizing Considerations

    The Commando Explorer is cut differently to the Commando. Sizing experience tells us that the Commando Explorer is usually a better fit for divers with a regular or short back - regardless of overall height. (The Commando is the best fit for a longer back). Whatever your body type - we have a Commando to fit you.

    Apart from a small difference in maximum buoyancy because of this difference in shape, the Commando Explorer is identical in build quality, features spec, upgrade options and price.

    Maximum Buoyancy

    Small - 11.73 kg   Medium - 16.02 kg   Large - 17.55 kg   XLarge - 19.89 kg

    Twinset Upgrade Option

    The supercam single webbing camband comes as standard. If you opt for the supercam twinset kit upgrade this is supplied in addition - allowing you to switch beteen single and twin cylinder setups.

    • Optional emergency mini-cylinder -  0.4litre 232bar DIN or 0.35litre 300bar DIN
       
    • Our unique patented stud system construction maintains the shape of the jacket and enables the tough outer bag to take the stress away from the bladder.
       
    • The stud construction also offers low profile wrap-around buoyancy and rapid gas flow around the BCD which affords the diver effortless manoeuvrability underwater unhindered by trapped air pockets.
       
    • 10 x  welded aluminium D rings with pre-bent, stand-off shoulder rings for easy location and attachment
    • The harness mounting points are on the inside face of the jacket, allowing it to inflate away from the diver, causing a minimum amount of squeeze when inflated fully. The design provides just enough squeeze so you can feel the jacket supporting you.

    • Spacious side-pockets with chunky 10mm zips and easy-find zip-runners
