sidemount

Hi, I am recently new into Sidemount diving. I got a Nomad LS system and I dive aluminum tanks. My tanks are always pointing slight up on the back and I'm wondering how I can fix this. Some people put weights on their tanks and others prefer not to and believe weights should be on the diver...

I want to make a new sidemount rig for warm water boat diving with a pair of al80's. I build my own harnesses, but I need a wing. I figure 15-20lbs of lift from the wing will be plenty. I am leaning towards the Deco 22lb sidemount bladder I saw from @DevonDiver - the price is right - but I am...

Just wondering if a plastic card in sidemounting can be mandatory for some dive centers? For me, SM is quite intuitive and a cert would just be a proof of my skills.

Everything you see in the individual pictures and also the two extra bent d-rings, two triangular d-rings, and two...

Apeks WSX25 harness with a generic wing (the rest of it is apeks hardware, including sliding d-rings). It works great and the wing is secured to the waist strap, so no need for a belly band. It currently has 2 hollis 5lb weight pouches and has attachment points on the inside of the wing for 4...

I thought this might be a fun thread, where I share observations, lessons, and situations I'm facing as a newbie sidemount diver. It's likely I'll embarrass myself and invite plenty of critique by creating this thread (be nice), but it's better to take & share learning opportunities than hide...

Hi folks, My name is Dani and I'm new on the forum. I've been diving backmount since I was a kid, but recently got into sidemount diving. I love it, it's way more convenient when guiding dives and saves me my back. I've been practicing with my gear a lot lately, but haven't had the chance to...

Hello sidemounters; For those sidemount divers who carry a separate drysuit bottle (because trimix), where do you put it? I have seen: -skip the bottle, run an inflator on your 50% deco bottle; -bottom mounted on the butt plate/butt portion of the crotch strap/clipped below the hip strap...

Hey guys. I currently dive the Apeks WSX and I'm due for an upgrade. I'm looking for a comparison between XDeep stealth tec 2 and Finnsub Speleo. I know quite a lot about the XDeep and how it works but don't know much about the Speleo. XDeep bias aside (I know XDeep did a fantastic job at...

I primarily dive wrecks in the Great Lakes. I am penetrating within my training, experience, and comfort. As I'm becoming a more experienced diver, I'm wanting to move into Sidemount OR Backmount Doubles. I see a lot of advantages to SM but the community seems to largely dive BM. Why? I've...
