My evolution went like this:
Jacket BC
Back Inflation BC (to allow for drysuit)
BP/W
I have never gone back to the jacket or the Ranger once I bought the BP/W. It just seems glued to my back and I have become a minimalist in my dive gear. A lot less drag.
However, I do miss having a pocket whenever I find some trash during a dive. I end up carrying it out in one hand.
I am seeing more reviews on tech-like set ups in the dive mags...right next to the articles with with the bell and whistle BC's!!!! I think there will always be a market for both.
Hijack alert: Maui trip in jeopardy this year...may be buying dream home here instead...and a lot of maccoroni and cheese....stay tuned.
