Description

Discover the ultimate solution for perfect trim and underwater balance with the MARES Xr Straws Weight Pocket. Designed for the discerning diver who demands precision and comfort, this system represents a significant advancement in weight management for both BCD jackets and backplate/wing setups.
Elevate your dive with the MARES Xr Straws Weight Pocket. This innovative system attaches directly to your tank bands, allowing precise weight distribution for flawless trim and enhanced in-water stability. Achieve a streamlined profile, reduce drag, and improve gas consumption by shifting weight to your cylinder. Enjoy superior comfort as pressure is relieved from your hips and back. The Xr Straws also act as a tank stabilizer, creating a more integrated and graceful diving experience. Lightweight, durable, and easily adjustable, this modular system offers a simple yet highly effective solution for both technical and recreational divers seeking optimal performance and comfort.
This clever weight management tool is engineered to fundamentally improve your in-water posture. By moving weight from your hips directly onto your cylinder, you can precisely adjust your center of gravity, making it incredibly easy to achieve and maintain a horizontal trim position. This leads to more efficient propulsion, reduced effort, and a feeling of being perfectly balanced in the water column. Say goodbye to the constant, minor finning adjustments required to counteract poorly positioned weight and hello to a more static and relaxed dive profile.
The slim, elongated design of the Xr Straws hugs your tank, creating a hydrodynamically superior configuration. This low-profile form factor eliminates the bulk and drag associated with traditional weight belts or overstuffed BCD pockets. By presenting a sleeker shape to the water, you cut through it with minimal resistance, which can directly translate to improved air consumption and less fatigue, especially on longer dives or in currents.
Experience a new level of diving freedom and comfort. Transferring the load from your lower back and waist to the solid structure of your tank alleviates common pressure points and strain. This makes extended dives and long decompression stops significantly more enjoyable. The system integrates so seamlessly with your existing gear that you’ll feel a more unified connection to your equipment, enhancing your overall stability and control. Whether you are a technical diver building a minimalist XR configuration or a recreational diver looking to optimize a single-tank setup, this versatile pocket is a game-changing upgrade for mastering your buoyancy and achieving a truly effortless dive
