If you can describe one of these 'other system(s)', I will absolutely tolerate it. But what you will find is that apart from DIR, there aren't any 'other system(s)'. There are only motley assemblages of various equipment that differ day to day, dive to dive, person to person and show no evidence of systematised thinking whatsoever. I do respect your ability to conduct an entire dive with nine items of gear attached to your high pressure hose and the whole package balanced in the crack of your ass though. But tell me, if you rotate, or hang vertically, or do anything but stay in a prone position throughout the entire dive, don't you have to clench hard enough to crack walnuts to keep the package in place? rgrds billyw >===== > >__________________________________________________ >Do You Yahoo!? >Bid and sell for free at http://auctions.yahoo.com >-- >Send mail for the `techdiver' mailing list to `techdiver@aquanaut.com'. >Send subscribe/unsubscribe requests to `techdiver-request@aquanaut.com'. -- Send mail for the `techdiver' mailing list to `techdiver@aquanaut.com'.
