I had the chance to check the system out the other day and it's pretty slick...

Looks like Halloween came early; Batman suit all the way, look at the ripples in that backplate padding....

thats a nice system..slick indeed..takes the guess work out of adjusting the harness from Dry suit to wet suit or no suit...

Looks like a great system!! Now if they can drop the price by about $2-300 im sure tons of people would buy it.

I particularly like the way that your can light and left-hip D-ring stay in place when you adjust the harness.

That is ingenius! Adjustability without danglies.

It appears to work exactly the same way that the ScubaPro CamPac I still use (bought in 1970) worked, except for the BC function. Another great step back into the past ... but it's NEW! and IMPROVED!

Not familiar with the CamPac. Got any pictures?

Did it allow for adjustment with a can light and left hip d-ring in place?

It's just an old plastic, injection molded, backpack, rather standard issue, but with a metal tank band. I have D-Rngs at the shoulder and when I tighten up on the waist (pull) or loosen the shoulders (push) they really do not move. The waist strap does move a little, but then we always mounted stuff to the cylinder(s) themselves, a bracket placed between the cylinder(s) and the backpack or to the backpack body itself.
