Ikoti ry'ubutabazi ry'umurabyo ryakozwe neza cyane, kandi rigaragara no mu mazi. Biroroshye ko abashakisha babona umuntu uhamagara munsi y'urumuri rwo gushakisha. Gukoresha ibikoresho byo kwibira byo mu mazi byiza, imbere mu gice cy'imbere cy'ikoti ry'ubutabazi bishobora gutuma ikoti ry'ubutabazi riguma rimeze neza mu mazi, kandi umwenda wa polyester wo hanze ushobora gukorwaho neza, ushobora kunyuramo amazi neza, bitandukanye n'ibikoresho bisanzwe bya ikoti ry'ubutabazi. Ubwiza ni bwiza cyane, umukandara ushobora guhindurwa neza bitewe n'umubiri w'uwambaye, kandi ugashyirwa mu mwanya mwiza w'uwambaye. Gukinira hanze mu mazi, kugendera ku mazi, kuroba hanze bibaye ngombwa, no kuzana ikoti ry'ubutabazi. Gukoresha ibikoresho birengera ibidukikije, ni byiza gukoresha. Ingano z'abantu bakuru n'iz'abana zishobora guhindurwa kugira ngo zihuze n'ibyo ukeneye.

Ikoti ry'ubutabazi rifite ubushobozi bwo kuvoma mu mazi, ntirishobora kuvoma, ryoroshye kwambara no gukuramo, ntirigira ingaruka ku myitozo ngororamubiri y'abantu, kandi koko rishobora kurinda umutekano w'abantu bari mu mazi. Ingabo zacu zifite ikoti ry'ubutabazi rimeze nk'ikoti. Urwego rudapfa amazi ruri hejuru ni kaseti ifite impande ebyiri ikozwe mu ibara ryabugenewe. Hari udufuka 4 twuzuyemo kapok imbere n'inyuma. Uburemere bwose ni 1.5 kg gusa, ariko rishobora gukora ibiro birenga 16 bya Buoyancy, umurwanyi ufite intwaro yuzuye arayambara akareremba mu nyanja, amazi ntazarenga amatugu. Nubwo ikoti ry'ubutabazi ryacika, haracyariho ubushobozi bwinshi bwo kuvoma.

Uretse gutuma ikoti ry’umupilote rirushaho kuguruka, ikoti ry’umupilote ry’ingabo zirwanira mu kirere zo mu mazi rifite imiterere yoroshye kumenya no kurwanya ifi z’ifi. Ubwo bwoko bw’ikoti ry’umupilote nabwo ahanini ni ubwoko bwa koti. Uretse udufuka tune twuzuyemo kapok ku gituza cyayo, hari n’umuyoboro uhuha ku gice cy’ikoti ry’umupilote risohoka rigana mu nyanja.
Ikoti ry'ubutabazi, rizwi kandi nka vesti yo gukiza indwara, ni ubwoko bw'imyenda ikiza ubuzima, yakozwe nk'ikoti, ikozwe mu mwenda wa nylon cyangwa neoprene (NEOPRENE), ibikoresho byo kurohama cyangwa ibikoresho bishobora guhumeka, ibikoresho bigarura ubushyuhe, nibindi. Igihe rusange cyo gukora ni imyaka 5-7, kandi ni kimwe mu bikoresho bikiza ubuzima ku bwato no mu ndege. Muri rusange ubwoko bwa vesti, ikozwe muri pulasitiki cyangwa cork. Ifite ubushobozi bwo kurohama buhagije bwo kwambara ku mubiri, ku buryo umutwe w'umuntu urohama ushobora gusohoka mu mazi.
