WWhen you hear the name IBM, you think computers. When you hear Ford, you think cars.

And when you hear Sherwood, you think scuba diving equipment.

That’s an industry icon.

Because the giants of any industry are synonymous with that industry. After decades and decades of industry leadership, they almost become that industry.

At Sherwood Scuba, we’re quite proud of our position of industry dominance.

We’re proud of the fact that our scuba gear is among the most popular in the world. Travel to anyplace on the planet where diving is popular, and you’ll find Sherwood gear in use.

We’re one of the oldest and most successful manufacturers of scuba equipment. From our early days as a pioneer in the fledgling field of scuba diving to the present, we’ve been an industry leader for more than half a century.

What That Means To You

We like the view from up here at the top of our industry, and we intend to stay here. And we know we aren’t going to remain at the top by resting on our laurels.

That’s why you are so important to us.

Because the only way we can retain our position of industry dominance is by continuing to do exactly the same thing that got us here – earning the trust of divers just like you.

After all, if we can earn your trust through our dedication to providing consistently superior products, then we’re off to a great start on our next half century. That’s why we continue to strive for excellence.

You’d expect nothing less from an industry icon, would you?

What’s An Industry Icon?

REGULATORSSRB1000The SR1 packs its advanced technology into a compact case, which employs contemporary styling and utilizes a multitude of cutting edge materials. With superior breathing performance of less than 0.5 joules/liter, W.O.B. at 165 fsw, 62.5 RMV, the SR1 is the most technologically advanced regulator Sherwood Scuba has produced in its storied 50 year history.

“The SR1 was this year’s show-stopper. It’s the first balanced

piston first stage we’ve seen with a dry-sealed spring chamber. This

innovative design provides the dry-sealed/reduced corrosion benefits

of a diaphragm reg, with the performance/durability benefits of a

piston reg. The second stage is lightweight and has a dual-purpose

control knob that adjusts both breathing resistance and venturi

effect. The reg delivers chart-topping breathing performance even at extremes, is bone dry and

easy to use at depth. It looks good too, with a polished chrome over brass first stage and a

velvety finish on the second stage to make it easier to hold onto. Pretty, with plenty of muscle.”

- Scuba Diving Magazine

The ideal choice for advanced and professional divers, Maximus is an extremely compact and comfortable regulator that’s big on performance. Ideal for all diving environments.

To develop the Blizzard Sherwood worked closely with safety services personnel that have to depend on their gear to perform in extremely demanding conditions. A time-proven product, the Blizzard has become the top choice of cold-water divers worldwide.

If you’re a warm-water diver who gets that awful feeling of dry mouth, you are going to love the Oasis. Sherwood has exclusively developed two second-stage moisture-retention fins for the Oasis that keep your mouth cool and comfortable all dive long.

This compact, precision-crafted performer is the regulator of choice for many professional and recreational divers. The Magnum meets or exceeds Navy diving tests and all European EN250 standards, including cold water performance tests.

The Gemini replaces the conventional BC power inflator and backup second stage regulator. With this two-in-one breathing device, an extra hose is eliminated, giving you a less cumbersome dive. The power inflation, oral inflation, and exhaust trim valve are designed to remain similar to standard BC inflators, so you are already familiar with the Gemini’s operating system.

The SR1 and the Sherwood Octoare the two best breathing octosever made. No other octos come closeto their incredible performance.

The Dual Octo is a great addition to any diver’s gear

bag. This octo, just as the name indicates, allows the mouthpiece to be installed in two separate positions and allows any diver maximum comfort, and never sacrifices Sherwood’s history of reliability and durability.

The Minimus has a uniquely designed mouthpiece position that allows you to give extra air to divers at your left or right-hand side. Because this octo is 35% smaller than most standard octos, your dive is more comfortable.

Y You know that when you’re on a dive, you need to be able to keep your buoyancy firmly under control. It’s a matter of safety and comfort. We’ve designed our Buoyancy Compensators to be the best at helping you do exactly that.

But we’ve also designed each of our BCs to be easy to use.

Through the years, we’ve learned a lot about what divers need from their dive gear. And we’ve learned that it’s not enough to make gear that is tough and reliable. Your gear should also make diving easier, not more difficult.

After all, we’ve been manufacturing scuba gear for more than 50 years. We’ve accumulated a lot of hard-won wisdom in that time. Wisdom about how to design and manufacture gear that offers world-class reliability and ease-of-use.

That’s why we know better than to load our BCs down with a lot of extra gadgetry that would only interfere with their usability.

That’s why we know how important it is to use time-proven materials in the construction of our BCs. Materials that will stand up to years of hard use in the harshest of environments.

And that’s why we know that it’s important to integrate function with form. Sure, our BCs look good. But we make certain that our stylish designs don’t come at the expense of the streamlining that is so crucial in minimizing drag.

With time-tested and reliable features such as our CQR2 integrated weight system, you’ll find that our BC’s offer the ultimate in reliability and usability.

After all, diving is serious business no matter what kind of diving you do. Whether you’re a professional diver or dive for fun, you need gear that is capable, reliable and easy to use.

With a Sherwood BC, you can depend upon being able to fine-tune your buoyancy with ease and precision. That’ll make your working dives a bit less tiring and tedious, and your fun dives a bit more enjoyable.

Sherwood’s CQR2 Weight Release system

provides a simple and reliable means to

carry weights on your BC. Weight pockets

are easily loaded into the front lobes of

the BC and secured with the patented 2”

side release clip.

Maintaining neutral buoyancy is one

of the key elements for a relaxed,

comfortable dive. The CQR2 System is

specifically designed to accommodate

your natural dive posture while allowing

full control of buoyancy.

The unobstructed release handles are

easily reached to quickly detach the

individual weight pockets. The quick

release is also convenient for reboarding

the dive boat. Simply detach your weights

and hand them over to your on-board

dive mates.

Equip your

S h e r w o o d

BC with the

o p t i o n a l

AKONA Pro

Kit. This kit

contains an

LED waterproof flashlight, dive knife, two

cable retractors and the tools to get them

all attached.


WARNING! Safe use of BC’s with integrated weights requires a complete understanding of their operation and limitations. Consult the BC operating manual and your diving instructor to be certain you understand how to weight yourself properly and what to do in an emergency. Failure to understand and act appropriately could result in serious injury or death.

Increase the functionality of your BC.

5000K VALVE: 5000K-48The most widely used scuba valve in the world. The critical link between your regulator and tank, our patented Sherwood valve was designed specifically to handle today’s high-performance regulators.

High air-flow capacity

O-ring outlet protected bypressure releasing crimp to resist “pop-out”

An all-Teflon seat, making it the smoothest operatingand most durable valve you can buy

A specially designed burst-disc assemblythat distributes escaping air evenly so your tank won’t spin

or tip if your burst disc vents

Standard glass lenses (A) have a slight green tint due to regenerative scattering of iron molecules during the tempering process. This green tint can distort true colors and reduce light transmission through the glass. The New Sherwood Crystal Clear Lenses (B) are superior quality optical glass with exceptional clarity and increased light transmission with no color distortion.
