Subject: Halcyon experience in Australia?
Hi all,

I am a new OW recreational diver, looking for divers in South Australia,
in the Adelaide area who have experience with the Halcyon style BC and
long hose. 

I agree with the DIR philosophy, and like the simplicity and minimal
configuration of the gear. However, there are no dealers in Australia
who can provide (I havent found any) support for this gear..or the
philosophy.

I would like to try out the gear here in Australia, and would really
benefit from advice from a local diver who has had the experience with
Halcyon. Or who could let me dive with the gear.

I have talked to a local prominent cave diver instructor here, and he is
dead set against the idea of a long hose. So no support there.

So I am stuck between choosing a back lift style BC, from a supported
brand (ie Sherwood outback) and the Halcyon gear, which I havent tried,
but think is better.

Any help would be appreciated,

Cathy Spencer
