I wonder if a BP/W setup might help me to love diving?

I was going to suggest this type of rig but I don't think they sell them anymore:

That's interesting. The way it sort of wraps around looks stable. And it certainly doesn't look like it was designed for two tanks in the first place. Nifty!

Guess I'll try what Silent World has and then if I don't like either of them I can start hunting through antique shops for one of those to try

Just curious if the opinions and ass****s analogy goes across all forum boards.

It's an axiom, not an analogy.

Maybe this would help...

In what way?

That generally cuts both ways.

OTOH relative fitness arguments based on the numbers of conventional BC in use vs BP&W's, or the frequency with which they appear on ebay are not logical, they are nonsense.

In one BP/W dealers opinion, but not in my opinion.

Part of what I've been trying to point out to the rigid many is the way you all type is pretty F'n absolute, and the subject of this thread can not be addressed over the internet as an absolute; nothing is that absolute. If someone gets bent out of shape over mincing words this way it's probably your own words that caused it.

I'm not trying to exclude myself and stand on a pedistal...I'm just a SBer who sees the bickering and the line in sand drawn all to often and curious how it relates to other none dive related boards.

I guess this is where the term "Strap a tank on your back" originated from.
