Shearwater & Avelo Diving System
Discover a new approach to buoyancy control with the Shearwater & Avelo System, now available at OCD Divers. Designed around the needs of the diver, the Avelo System combines innovative water-based buoyancy control, advanced Shearwater electronics, and streamlined equipment to create a simpler, more comfortable diving experience.
Unlike traditional scuba systems that rely on large air-filled BCDs and significant amounts of lead, the Avelo System uses an innovative Hydrotank and hydraulic technology to manage buoyancy with water. The result is exceptional stability, reduced task loading, improved awareness, and more natural movement throughout the dive.
What is the Avelo System?
Avelo reimagines scuba diving through an integrated system that helps divers remain calm, confident, and in control underwater. By replacing traditional buoyancy compensation methods with dynamic water-based buoyancy control, the system minimizes buoyancy changes caused by depth and significantly reduces the need for frequent adjustments.
- Control: Greater physical freedom and precision underwater.
- Confidence: Simplified buoyancy management and reduced task loading.
- Calm: More focus on the dive experience and less time adjusting equipment.
How it works
The Avelo System uses hydraulics to move water into and out of the Hydrotank. Because water is used as dynamic ballast, divers typically require significantly less lead than a traditional scuba setup.
Unlike a standard BCD, the system does not contain a large air bladder that expands and contracts with depth. This creates remarkably stable neutral buoyancy throughout the dive and dramatically reduces the need for constant buoyancy corrections.
Benefits of Avelo Diving
- Stable buoyancy: Maintain neutral buoyancy more consistently throughout the water column.
- Less weight: Most divers use little to no lead when diving with the Avelo System.
- Reduced workload: Spend less time managing buoyancy and more time enjoying the dive.
- Streamlined equipment: Compact system design minimizes drag and bulk.
- Improved efficiency: Better awareness and reduced effort can contribute to longer, more enjoyable dives.
- Integrated technology: Seamlessly connects with compatible
