On my last trip I dove with a fellow that had a Genesis BC with the most useful pocket I have ever seen. It was attached to the outer "belt" of his cumberbund. It closed with velcro and was expandable.
He said that there were aftermarket pockets/pouches like his, but I have never seen one. I stopped by two dive shops in my area and they had not heard of such a device.
My BC, a fine SeaQuest product has almost useless pockets. They are damn near impossible to open when the BC is on and I am UW. They are not a lot easier to close UW. Since I like to dive w/o gloves in warm water, but want to keep gloves nearby, I would really like a better pocket. Also want a place to keep my flashlight or spare flashlight on night dives. I do not like hanging too much stuff on D-Rings because I carry a camera and do not want too much stuff dragging that could catch coral, etc.
Sooo, the question is: Before I invent one of these things myself to sew on my cumberbund, does anyone know of something on the market?
