CUSTOM DIVERS - any thoughts?

[steel]

Recently i was looking for my first BC and decided to stop on BP config, but Halcyon or OMS gear apperas to be pretty price, so through some research i found this brand, but i don't know a thing about their quality (for example, in russia dive system-soprasub - is becoming banned among tekks, because there are rumors going that's not reliable enough).
thanks

Hi Steel,

Custom Divers is a British company. You might try asking the question on a British scuba board. Try [www.divernet.com] and look in the Equipment Talk section. The folks there are very friendly and helpful.

Of CD TBD, 2 reels and 10W HID canister lights. I like their stuff very much and not just because they were a local firm when I lived in the UK.

I think they make some really good stuff. The quality is good and so is the customer service. Alex and the gang all use it themselves (that's why they make it) on their expeditions.

I know the DIR crew don't like them because of the number of D rings and the quick release clips. On the quick release clips this is nonsense as only one shoulder is and as pasrt of my IANTD Technical Diver course had to swim around with the clip undone and hardly even noticed....

They also have a new wing TCW with no bungee what so ever, but it is more pricey....

Hope that helps
Jonathan
