@tbone1004 - interesting perspective on AL80. I never liked them for some reason. I do like AL72 due to how it sits, trims, and its buoyancy characteristics. Also, as I don't do much wreck diving / open water, when I do open water, I have the same bailout configuration - sidemount setup.

I do tend to prefer AL72 but as AL80's are ubiquitous I think it's important that you learn to work with them properly and would argue that it's actually worth optimizing your setup around them. If you are traveling or are in project type diving you'll be dealing with AL80's.
