Features & Benefits
- Designed for Travel
Lightweight and packable, the Photon Air is purpose-built for traveling divers.

Photon Air is built to dry fast. Its innovative 3D mesh design maximizes airflow and water drainage, while advanced lightweight materials shed moisture quickly keeping the BC lighter between dives and more comfortable on the surface.
- Modularity Re-imagined
Designed to evolve with the diver, the Photon system allows you to add color kits, accessory pockets, and even customize weight systems, no more compromises.
- Infinite Adjustment
Adjustment and positioning for a perfect personal fit. Independent harness positioning lets you fine-tune the feel and fit for your shoulders, hips, and back.
- Low Profile, Streamlined Performance
Photon’s compact back-inflation wing and lightweight backplate design makes packing a breeze, reduces drag underwater and effortlessly improves horizontal trim underwater.
- Serviceable
The Photon ecosystem includes shared components and accessories that are interchangeable which allows easy and lower cost service if needed in the future.
