Use the inflator in complete comfort
The STARK BCD follows the DIR philosophy that aims at functionality optimisation, thus also the inflator is highly functional. Its connection is always placed in the higher part and slightly left in order to facilitate its use and save space. To allow its immediate localization, the inflator holder (sewn in the bladder) supports the corrugated tube. The inflator included in the standard equipment of this diving BC is with simple curve connection and 16’’ spiral corrugated (40 cm). It has a piston control, a nickel-plated brass inner mechanism and derlin non-slip buttons.
