Hi George,
Yup it is a good configuration, or at least one that is simple and =
clean. I just had a chance today to dive the Scuba Pro FFM and I must =
say in bang for the buck, this is one hell of a mask. I was using the =
latest one? that was plumbed for a rebreather except that I was using an =
Odin fed from the left as per the AGA. The visibility is great (the AGA =
sucks looking down the body), has a much lower profile and seals well. I =
do like the overpressure AGA but the Scuba Pro definitely gets a thums =
up also.
Dan.
