Originally invented in 1972 by David Parker the Auto Air was years ahead of its time preceding all of the current crop of octo-inflators. It combines in one compact unit, the AP jacket breathing facility, a direct feed power inflator and an alternate air source octopus bail-out. The new Auto Air 2006 has been improved and restyled. It still offers superb breathing performance but is now a balanced valve with the advantage that it requires no adjustment or setup. It will automatically balance to the interstage pressure of whatever regulator it is fitted to. |

The Redwing is a central element of the BUDDY modular system giving you the capability to upgrade your sport jacket to a technical configuration by adding an extra 22.5 kg of redundant buoyancy in a self-contained unit. Designed to be used by a wetsuited technical diver or for drysuited cold water dives deeper than 70m. The Redwing has its own inflation and hose exhaust – independent of the jacket bcd. These are situated in the same hose assembly offering one-handed operation of both functions. There is a second manual dump valve at the kidney and third o.p. valve at the rear top. The Redwing is fully compatible with both new BUDDY jackets – the Commando and the Explorer. It sits between the waistcoat jacket and the cylinders and is fitted by a simple re-threading of the existing backpack webbing. Two welded stainless steel 50mm D rings provide secure rear anchor points for side mounted travel and decompression cylinders. The Redwing allows for extra
trimming possibilities to achieve a relaxed head up surface support position
regardless of the cylinder configuration.
