Thank you, Mark. Tyler PM'd me and told me he would forward my question to the desktop developers. In addition he wrote that there was no more memory available in the predator for gimmicks like the one I requested.

I have seen (but cannot find the source) a graphic showing that VPM might exceed M-values on shallow stops, this is also the reason for the VPM/B with GF modification Shearwater offers on their V56 of the Predator firmware.

I am prestudying the course material for Advenced Nitrox and the manual states that the IANTD tables are Bühlmann based refined using EAD. I ran some of the tables through V-Planner and founds out that they match ZH-L16B with GF set to 75/75 pretty well. In the manual the last pages are titled...

The only difference seem to be 5 cm in length Backplate, Harness and Wing Systems (BPW) by Hollis - Dive Gear Express the width seems to be the same for both wings.

If you want to dive lakes in Central Europe I recommend a drysuit. You just might be in time to dive at Tragöß-Grüner See in Austria make sure to check out their homepage to see if there is enough water in the lake.

Yes the Ride in the picture is the 37lb I have never seen a 23lb Ride IRL but you might find information on http://diving.abyss.com.au/2013/02/hollis-ride-travel-bcd/

That depends on the BP ;) A soft-BP + wing will likely require more lead to sink than a Ride with the padding removed. An Al or SS BP will definitely require less.

The wing is a little large for a single tank but I appreciate the lift, as it will float with all the lead I need in weight pockets and on the tankstraps. I use a 5mm wetsuit (or a drysuit) instead of padding and have never dived it in a T-shirt, but once in the water I do not feel it at all...

read Deco for Divers by Mark Powell for the theory part of diving, the Six Skills by Steve Lewis for the practical and go diving as much as possible. Stay within your comfort zone and it will magically expand ;) to a point where you want to try new sites and challenges

How are they mounted to the sleeves? can the rings be removed easily?

I used it as my main BCD and still use the 37lb version for travel. I love it for its weight. Tanks I dived it with are singles:Al 80, Al 100, steel 10l, steel 12l ((long version), steel 15l with weight pockets steel doubles 8.5l (these I use with a V-weight and removed the bungies) I dive it...

If you are comfortable in the water you might as well give it a try. You will quickly find out whether task loading with a reel is too much for you.

Maybe he meant he was breathing off his BC

The Hollis Ride is a back inflate BCD by definition but it feels like a BPW setup. I have dived mine with single tanks and with doubles. The only reason I own a SS backplate is that I like to dive without weight pockets and a weight belt will not stay where it belongs ;). The Ride is great for...

you will have to delete the "dive" they did at service

yes :) I don't think anyone is, but now it is evidence based :cool2:

Does anyone know what side they went in?

The fact that you asked here makes me wonder whether you are really comfortable with this dive. If not - don't do it.

Never bad to have a backup ;) I wonder what the shipping cost will be if it goes half around the world. O'Three is locateds in the UK and your profile says Norway :confused:
