Hi,
In looking at the ScubaPro website at the Glide Pro BCD (here), the URL link to the BD Manual (here) doesn't list the "Glide Pro" model by name (the T-Force or X-Force seems similar?).
What I'm trying to determine is if ScubaPro says that this BCD can support twins for a warmwater application, and if so with what other limitations. Like my Knighthawk BC, the Glide Pro's backpack does have the bolt holes for twin bands, so they could be physically installed. But in reading the above Manual for "all" BCDs, it is not clear just what ScubaPro uses as their criteria. Clearly, there's other factors (eg, coldwater/warmwater thermal protection levels), but if one goes by the above Manual's documentation for Classic Unlimited, it would appear to be based on having 60+lbs of lift instead of 45lbs ... but pages later in the same document, twins are also listed as supported on the Master Jacket at 45lbs, so the suitability answer apparently isn't just a lift rating.
