Jacket S 2011 T

It’s the evolution of the legendary S 111, a model that heritages its ambition of maximum quality and features for exigent divers with a traditional style.

 It’s the only Cressi jacket that maintains the C-Trim weight system, considered the safest and more efficient by most people although it has been replaced at trade level by systems of horizontal diver’s swimming.

Its robust but hydrodynamic construction combines 5 different fabrics in a semi back structure with great ascensional capacity. The dorsal’s area structure provides a significant additional volume to the jacket regarding traditional models, that allows achieving the highest levels of ascensional capacity of all Cressi range, to satisfy the most technical divers and, especially, the most skinny diver women.

Furthermore, it’s a jacket 100% unisex, perfect also for diver women because of its features, especially regarding the harness configuration with harness system, totally separated from the inflatable sack to cancel the oppression over the diver’s body and to boost the fixation of the inflatable jacket and of axillary distribution. Despite being an accessorized jacket, it maintains lightness and hydrodynamic penetration capacity remarkable on a high level model.

To achieve this result, to only the chamber of the dorsal area has been developed, but it has been separated completely from the harness, to avoid limiting the sack’s expansion, and to make it expand to the outside without oppressing the diver’s body. The ventral strap, slightly elastic, that now has two big rings to obtain a simple tensioning, and the sash, also separated from the sack, contribute even more to the usage comfort of the jacket, which can be used completely tight at all times.

Completely redesigned shoulder pads: really flexible, adherent and a bit more open to obtain maximum comfort even to dive without wetsuit or with models that don’t have hook and are of reduced thickness. The possibility of regulating the length allows personalizing every kind of construction.

Chest elastic strap with fastex belt and integrated whistle.

The C-Trim ballast system is considered the safest and most easily manipulated integrated ballast system. The ballast now falls behind, adapted exactly on the sides’ area and in contact with the jacket’s interior. Thus, there are less rotation inertias on the diver’s body, which means that more stability and balance help the weight to be on axis with the diver’s body. This integrated system is completed by two dorsal pockets.

There is a remarkable new design of side air chambers, now of round-profile, a profile slightly lower to liberate the oppression from the chest and new materials extremely flexible and comfortable. The pockets are extended over the C-Trim compartments and close through a robust plastic YKK© zip and a handle.

It also has a semi rigid, light and minimum thickness back-pack. It has a new pad really comfortable, adherent and that doesn’t absorb water (lighter outside the water) or air (less buoyancy at the beginning of the diving).
