Just a couple of notes, I have had the line become entrapped with a bag release, it happens sometimes...however, not often. Second, in Manos area, where he may use a wet suit, the bag with the air release valve on top can be used as a backup buoyancy control device. The super alert marker has no air release valve on top, thus, not useful as a backup buoyancy device. When I took the GUE Tech course, we practiced using the bag, with the valve on top, as a back up buoyancy device. We were also in wet suits. When in a dry suit,your dry suit is your back up buoyancy device. -----Original Message----- From: Wavesailor [mailto:wavesailor@zo*.nl*] Sent: Thursday, January 04, 2001 6:37 AM To: Tech Diver Subject: RE: Supra Lift bags Hi Manos, I've got a 'super big dive alert marker' for some time now, I love it! I use my drysuit inflator, same reason you came up with, one-hand release and attach from the drysuit and the lenght of the hose. Wing inflator hose for back-up. In combination with a spool, this is the dir approach. No reel, it's more likeley to stuck, so you'll lose the bag+reel. When you loose the spool, it'll come down right in front of your nose, because the line can't be trapped.
