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 ------------------------------------------------------------------- Email:cspencer@te*.co* Analog Electronics : The pristine regimented symmetry of digital circuit boards is occasionally interrupted by an irregular huddle of linear components.
