Just finished my first full day of diving with my new Halcyon Eclipse…just can’t describe how great it was, the stability, the trim, everything…..I wish I started using a BP/W a long time ago…..if you didn’t try it yet, do it tomorrow!!!

Also, I asked a lot of question about the ACB system, I was worried my weight belt will get in the way, but I didn’t even feel it, so for now I will spend the money on something else, but probably will try them eventually.
 
Having now five dives with a BP/W, I can see why people like them. I am really surprised at how comfortable the rig is (other than the last dive today, when I got the tank too high and couldn't raise my head at all . . . ), and I very much like splitting the weight between my shoulders and my waist. Not to mention that the BP/W with tank is MUCH easier to move around than my BC with integrated weights! And best of all, the tank stays where it's put :)

welcome to the club amigo, i on the otherhand have no basis for comparison as i have been using an eclipse since dive #1:)
 
Welcome to the BP/W club. There is not a day goes by, that a diver like yourself discover how great and comfortable it is to dive BP/W.
