I've been doing research into side mount, i'm about to do some training.
Alot of the research seems to always end in "purchase the razor" or "purchase the stealth" I'm from Melbourne and i can't find anyone who actually teaches these systems(which alot of people recommend if buying these two)
Stealth classic
Stealth tec
Razor
These 3 seem to be the go to side mount harness and wings. I'll be diving steels and also diving dry.
i dont believe i'll benifit from the extra functions of the stealth classic such as: easily removing of the wing for tight penetrations etc
I've found someone that dives the apeks which seems similar to the razor and stealth.
So i have 3 options/questions the way i see it:
Is the stealth tec a pretty straight forward harness to set-up and learn in. Even if the person teaching has never used this set-up
Is the razor really as hard as what many make it out to be to set-up and is a razor instructor/diver really that needed?
Or should i just go for the apeks and learn in something that the person assisting me knows about and actively dives in.
I'm currently leaning towards either the stealth/apeks
Just how similar are the 3 or not at all. Any suggestions or input are greatly appreciated
