Greetings:

Just a rec diver (for now) looking for info from experts :) ...

I dive with about a 23lb weightbelt, and 3lbs on my ankles.  It's a
real drag swimming with the belt twisting and turning about my waist
(even when tightened up well it seems to move).  

I noticed in a DUI advertisement a suspenders-and-belt contraption
they have for carrying weights which seems like it could be a more
comfortable solution.  Has anybody used these?  What sort of price
range are they in?  What type of weights do they take?

Anybody have any suggestions (yes I know if I get steel tanks I can
loose some of the weight) (and I know if I try twin pressed-steel 104s
I will probably need to loose all the weights and still add some
boyancy -- not current options, I'm afraid)

Adam
