My wife wishes to replace her aging Seaquest Bc -- she has tried on almost every women's BC in our area. She liked the Ladyhawk and the Seaquest Pearl, but both are a little bulky for travel packing, but fine in the water. She tried the Dive Rite Transpac also -- she liked how streamlined it felt in comparison to jacket bcs, but the showstopper for her is the webbing and metal belt ... no logic can turn around her adverse reaction to her perception that it could be uncomfortable.
So, I did some searching and found that OMS makes BPW with a comfort harness that has a cummerbund that also has a metal buckle (BP-133/134) OMS Technical Dive Harness Backplate Systems http://www.OMSdive.com, but the cummerbund appears to have some padding. This may be the compromise for perceived comfort, less bulk, and less travel weight.
Anyone have any direct experience with one of these?
Thanks
