Customers like the size of the bag. They mention it's very roomy, and comfortable for huffing gear any distance. The size is perfect for dive boat trips, and the top cinch cord is a lot beefier than they expected. The bag held up great, and easily carried everything they needed. The pocket along the back is a perfect location for small items that could easily get lost. The dry pocket is really deep, and keeps everything dry. The straps are comfortable and wide, which is important when carrying heavy loads.

It's best for travel by air or trips where the diving site is close to the car, and folds very flat for travel.

10/22/2018 Update: Several dives and several years later this product still holds strong. I have had 0 problems with this bag. I have also managed to get a full set of gear including BCD and regulators which pack comfortably into the bag with no problems. I doubt you would be able to pack 2 full sets of gear from fins to BCDs but you can certainly pack 1 full set and extras like an extra set of gloves, boots, and an extra mask with a case (and more). The zippers still work, the pull string still works, there are no tears or rips. It is probably one of the most study pieces of dive equipment I own.
Also there is a zipper on the side by the shoulder straps for quick and easy access to things rather than undoing the top strap. This came in very handy when trying to grab or put things back into the bag with other peoples things piled on top of my bag in the dry area of the dive boat. Overall I am thrilled with this bag, seems like it will hold up great to mild abuse, and will hold plenty.
Only thing I have to say on the other end, it is big, and even with the items I had in it you have to be aware of it being on your back when you are around things like in the stores and in groups of people.
Inside the big mesh section, which has a nice long zipper so you can load either from the side or from the top:
-2 sets of fins
-2 sets of boots (both with harder bottoms, so they're a little bigger)
-2 BDCs
-2 regulators
-PLENTY of space for additional stuff, like towels, clothes, etc.
Inside the inner zipper pocket (zips at the top and is really long (the entire length of the bag):
-2 snorkels (I liked this pocket so the snorkels stayed somewhat protected from all the other big gear
Inside the outer pouch:
-2 pairs of goggles in their plastic cases
After previously carrying one set of gear in a duffle and carrying 2 sets in this, the backpack style is SO MUCH more comfortable to carry! You don't even really notice it's on your back. I love this bag! It would be great for the beach or any other activity that you want the ability for the contents to air out. There are drain holes on the bottom of the main compartment as well as on the bottom of the outside pouch. It also rolls up to a fairly compact size. My only wish is that there were an additional smaller pocket to put keys or a wallet. If the goggles weren't in the boxes, I wouldn't want to put my keys in the same pouch to avoid scratching the goggles, so it would be nice to have a place to put a few other small things, but this is definitely not a deal breaker for me.
It is a big bag! My fins are just over 24" long and they easily fit with plenty of room to spare. In fact, with the fins, boots, wetsuit, snorkel, and mask, there is still plenty of room for a medium sized BC.
This is a great mesh bag for your SCUBA gear; however, it is a bit oversized for snorkeling gear unless your carrying multiple set-ups (multiple fins, masks, wetsuits, etc.).
If I needed another one, this is the one I would buy again.

La bolsita de adelante es muy útil también y el material súper resistente

La bolsita de adelante es muy útil también y el material súper resistente
On peut y mettre facilement 4 paires de palmes dont des Avanti Quattro Power Mares qui font 74cm de long.
Il reste de la place pour masques et tubas et même pour des serviettes.
Avec tout ça on dépasse les 10kg et les sangles de sac à dos situées à l’arrière sont idéales pour marcher jusqu'à la plage sans s'épuiser les bras...
Je recommande.
