Dive Rite SS BP and Halcyon ACB20

[YoungCousteau]

Does anyone know if the ACB20 weight pockets will fit on a dive rite SS BP with the transharnes. I have tried the dive rite weight pockets and found that the weight shifts a lot, expecially when diving down the pockets are just too big. Any ideas will be greatly appreciated.

I have possible solutions for you.

I have used them both and have preference for number two.

1. Use the weight bags that came with the pockets. You can fill them with either shot or pre-made weights and fold them over to seal. That will reduce the movement some.

THis will cause the pockets to be a bit harder to "dumo", but I have practiced with them and never had any issues.

2. Place velcro in the inside of the Dive Rite pockets and after you have your weights installed, seal the velcro. Ta Da no movement. You need to work out the velcro placement. I have two spots. a. is for warm and b is for cold.

Good luck.

The DR weight pockets will slip over D-rings so I zip tied my weight pockets to the BP. Works great....
