Bp/w ss/lcd30

[vixtor]

After a long trip (2 days delivery from Tobin to a friend of mine in US, and ~3 weeks from that friend to Romania), the BP/W setup arrived.

In the last hour I assembled it (hopefully right). Here are some pictures:

I am still a little puzzled about the utility of the inner tubes. I guess the upper left one is for putting the low pressure hose through it (but this puts the corrugated hose slightly too far on the exterior of the shoulder). Anyway - it remains to be seen in the water. But what about the lower inner tubes?

Anyway, the manufacturing quality is great (way above anything I have seen until now). I hope I will have time to put it in the water this week-end, and I will keep you updated.

Congratulations! I just converted to a BP/W and love it.

The inner-tubes on the shoulder straps are for strapping down your backup lights. Clip the light to the D-Ring and then put the other end in the inner-tube. It keeps the lights from flopping around.

Parz is right

Vixtor ... after the locals see you in your new DSS rig I see a bunch of new orders for Tobin soon

I do think so. The equipment looks gorgeous and very solid. Too bad the website doesn't really reflect this - I had mixed thoughts for some time before I decided to order (and the positive decision was mostly because of www.scubaboard.com, not because of www.deepseasupply.com ).

The first dives were great. I posted my impressions in the main BC forum:
