Dive Rite Nomad LT Cave

Product Description

#BC4525

Designed for warm water diving with aluminum 80s, the Nomad LT is our lightest and most streamlined sidemount rig in the Nomad line. The Nomad LTs exceptional design creates the first sidemount rig of its kind that is simple to set up and configure with an all-in-one webbing harness and wing combination. Pivot points at the chest provide comfort for women and large-chested divers and stainless steel slides at the waist provide a customizable fit. See our Nomad LT Fitting Video for tips.

Unique to the Nomad LT is the tight wing profile that provides instant trim with an ingenius 3-inch (7.6cm) expansion panel located at the base of the wing. This puts air where it is needed for optimal trim and efficiency. A low profile buttplate is located just at the base of the wing for divers with steel 85s, providing easy access to bottles. SuperFabric® brand technology on the outer wing provides optimum resistance to punctures and abrasions, while remaining very flexible.

The Nomad LT Cave has pull dumps located at the base of the wing with the inflator on the inside right and OPV located on the inside left. The inflator and OPV can be reversed by the diver, if desired. Integrated daisy chain technology gives divers the option for Nomad Loop Bungees or a standard bungee according to diver preference. Two, separate bungees, rather than one continuous bungee, provide greater control in the case of a failure.

Weighing only 5.4lbs (2.5kg), the Nomad LT is our favorite for travel to warm water destinations. Extremely streamlined, the Nomad LT has 22lbs of lift to carry twin aluminum 80 cylinders with a wetsuit or Faber steel 85s when wearing a drysuit. ** Made in the U.S.A.

** Faber steel 85s are lighter than other brands of similar size tanks. Only wear Faber steel 85s with the Nomad LT.

*** Due to a lift capacity of 22lbs, the NomadLT is designed to support a maximum of 10lbs of additional weight worn for trim or buoyancy purposes.
