if you can add weight plates, then it's possible to dive without a weightbelt. Is that correct?

pabayaan mo na sila...wag mo nang tawagin yung bokyo na yon. Hindi ka naman kagaya nya eh. Inaalerto mo lang yung kumag sa mga sinusulat natin dito eh. Wag na pards.paolov:pagkayo hindi tumigilsa pag usap ng DIR at hogarthian dito i will have kim move all your post to the DIR section.

ganun talaga yan... kaya nga di na ako nakikinig sa mga yun e... para ka lang nakisabay sa usapang born-again/iglesia/ang dating daan... magulo na nga wala ka pang nararatingyomar:ahhhh...yun pala... mas clear na ngayon. Thanks for explaining guys! So since i'm only a recreational diver (at least for now), i'll go with the standard hose lengths muna and clip the octo to my right d-ring like what jonix said.
You know what got me confused? Reading some posts about the dir vs hog, i got the impression that these are two conflicting approaches. Pag may pumupuri sa DIR, sinasabi ng iba na baka awayin sila ng mga hog followers. That got me confused since ang pagkakaintindi ko, which apparently ay tama naman as confirmed by shugar and halthron, the DIR took its gear config from hogarthian.
Anyway thanks again for clearing this up.
chip,chip104:Halthron, if you go back to Divers Point, tell Ellen to give me a text. I live down the street and we can meet up for some Halo-Halo. No cat tongue will be involved.
@ Jagfish: Thanks for the websites. Axua was telling me about DSS backplates and they look nice. Btw, the DIR zone website is not up yet. (Bad Chip! You've used up all your paychecks...)
dude! i've been seriously considering bright orange, yellow or pink webbing just to be different hahahahahahahaHalthron:I really, really like the DSS plate but don't want to get a horseshoe wing and while his package price is really good, the components individually are pretty pricey. At the moment, I'm leaning toward a Hammerhead plate & STA with an Oxycheq wing.
Of course, to annoy any DIR people without a sense of humor, I'll have to change the webbing to another color.
They have a "silver" which looks sort of silvery, not sure how gray it'd turn out to be in person though. I was gonna get a couple of colors if I could but need to email them first since the shade of blue I was going to get seems to be out of stock at the moment.shugar:dude! i've been seriously considering bright orange, yellow or pink webbing just to be different hahahahahahaha
if you find something in a metallic gold or silver give me a holler hahahahahaha
