Goodbye Weight Belts, Goodbye BCDs: Welcome to Avelo
Avelo is where your underwater adventure begins — with a lighter, safer, and more enjoyable way to dive. The Avelo System is a streamlined scuba setup that replaces traditional BCDs and weight belts, using water instead of air to manage buoyancy.
This creates stable, neutral buoyancy at all depths, transforming how we dive, teach, and explore the underwater world. Learn to dive Avelo with accredited Avelo Dive Centers.
About Avelo
Avelo is a breakthrough dive technology and training company transforming the scuba experience through lightweight gear, intuitive buoyancy, and real-time insights. Our innovation, the Avelo System, combines a Hydrotank and Jetpack to deliver unmatched stability, reduced task loading, and a heightened sense of control. By using water for buoyancy, divers experience smoother, safer, and more enjoyable dives.
The Avelo System was conceived by Aviad Cahana, a scuba instructor and engineer determined to eliminate heavy, cumbersome gear. Years of development and testing turned his vision into reality, and the first real-world dives proved that Avelo would change scuba forever.
The Avelo System
At the heart of our innovation is a lightweight, integrated design that replaces the traditional BCD. The Avelo System uses water ballast, managed through a mechanical purge valve and a battery-powered pump, to maintain consistent neutral buoyancy regardless of depth. This frees divers from constant adjustments, making every dive smoother, safer, and more intuitive.
