Scubapro Sidemount harness

[Wannabedivebum]

Ive heard/read of some rumours of a scubapro sidemount rig? Since I am in the market to buy a sidemount set up (jumping on the band wagon) Im wondering if any of those who are at dema this year saw anything at the scubapro booth? I know HOG released a new one but Its hard to find information on these new rigs.

I believe this is what you are looking for regarding the HOG but have heard nothing of Scubapro

HOG Sidemount BCD at DEMA

ScubaPro did jump into the fray, did not look all that impressive. Also not awed by the Hog rig. Halcyon Contour is a true sidemount rig.

I did not bother lookin at the Scuba Pro rig, but keep in mind the Hog is a prototype still.

At first glance the halcyon one is ugly as hell, blocky and chunky but after watching that youtube video it doesnt look half bad. Too bad I cant afford the H tax, thing is twice the proposed price of the HOG rig...Ill probably just wait it out and see what comes on the market in the next few months

Not great picture but it does show Scubapro's SM rig. Looks different that's for sure.

One person thought it looked like a parachute.

Yah that does look weird, but if it performs well who cares I guess, will be interesting to hear the reviews and see videos of it in action.

Have you seen a Contour in person? It is very large and bulky. Not what I consider a "true" sidemount rig.

Knowing the model (and the designer), it can't be any bigger than the Hollis SMS 100 or the Diverite Nomad.
