It comes with integrated weight pouches, which hold up to 5kg of hard or soft lead and are secured with a 25mm buckle and large velcro flap. The inner pouch features the familiar chunky grips for easy weight handling. These pockets can be converted to spacious 3 litre cargo pockets as an alternate use if integrated weights are not to your taste.

Also standard is the time-proven integrated shoulder-dump which dumps at a slower rate than the other two dump valves, making it ideal for (one-handed) fine-tune buoyancy control. With the usual attention to detail BUDDY have included their innovative, easy-to-locate, floating dump-valve knob at the lower rear valve. The one at the chest is made from negatively buoyant material, again, for ease of location.

The new wing is extremely comfortable with or without a suit, with very generous padding at shoulders, waist and back. It also features a cummerbund that is size adjustable at front and rear to perfect the fit and has a waistband that can be tightened with either hand.

The Travelwing offers 14.5kg of lift and offers multiple lightweight prebent anodised-aluminium D rings (4 x 50mm on the waist and 3 x 25mm on the shoulders), plus the usual two, very useful, 25mm internal pocket D rings and a hose-retaining clip for efficient equipment management.

It has a neat rubber and webbing carry-handle at the rear, a cylinder-retaining strap and a single-cylinder camband, which solidly secures all cylinder sizes up to 15 litres.

All-in-all the new Travelwing is a lightweight package that delivers the high performance, quality and comfort expected of a BUDDY bcd.

PLEASE BE AWARE: The new (Oct 2010) APV300 inflator has standard inflate / deflate / oral-inflate functions BUT DOES NOT have the emergency jacket-breathing valve function of the other two A.P. Valves. Therefore, you will not be able to use this valve for this emergency routine as described in the APV200 and APV100 sections of this site There is no facility for an emergency mini-cylinder option on the Escape. Therefore, if you choose the Auto Air option, the emergency jacket-breathing function of the Auto Air does not apply. However, the spare-air octopus regulator function of the Auto Air will operate as normal
