I had to shake my head, because luckily this happened on the surface on the predive and not in the water, it leaked air as if there was on open port on the first stage. I have never liked those lp hose swivel (like on the Dacor, Scuba Pro, Zeagle etc) and consider them a point for failure, it is just one extra o-ring to worry about. Any one else with a similiar experience? As for the Maximus, I have never seen a problem and have seen it dove in the extremists of conditions, I have yet to see it fail, but I am not a fan of the dry bleed system. Last Dive Gros Cap, Lake Superior, Temp 32 degrees farenheit 0 degrees celsius 45 minutes.
