Like how straightforward it is, how easy to add/remove? I really don't want to get rid of my Commando, and sort-of float OK - bit low - but would like some more redundancy. (Like you, I find a dry suit on its own essentially unusable at depth because of the Michelin Effect :-) ---------------------- Neal, The Zeagle "toilet seat" laces directly onto the Commando backpack without any cutting or modifications to either unit. You can have either a L/H or R/H hose, I used the L/H one (both over the same shoulder). Looking at the Zeagle bag, there are two webbing straps which cross from one wing to the other. I put the top one through the Commando backpack together with the normal cylinder straps, and the lower one did up below the backpack without going through anything. The only problem was the elbow pipe at the top of the hose. The dump valve incorporated into this elbow ended up too low, and the top of the hose was pinched against my back. Removal of the dump valve from the elbow assy would solve this, but another shoulder dump would need to be fitted to the bag.
