What Does BC Stand For?
BC stands for Bouyancy Compensator
BC, or Buoyancy Compensator, is a device used in scuba diving and underwater activities to help divers maintain neutral buoyancy underwater. It allows divers to adjust their buoyancy by inflating or deflating the bladder, which is usually filled with air or other gases. This aids in achieving optimal depth control and enhances safety and comfort during dives. The BC typically incorporates attachment points for carrying equipment and features for quick release and adjustment.
