Hello,
I intend to get back into diving soon. Previously I had a Scubapro Knighthawk, which l greatly enjoyed, but I would like to move even further towards a backplate with wings. However, I'm not sure I want to -- or need to -- go all the way. The diving I plan to do, almost strictly, is shallow shore diving around FL.
So what are some good options, for freedom of movement, back inflate or BPwW style, where it's more of a minimalist approach? I'm not sure I like the crotch strap; I really want to be able to remove the setup quickly underwater (e.g. due to fishing line issues) if need be. My struggle is it's not technical diving in the traditional sense, but current, fishing line, and other issues make it not exactly sport despite me wanting to remain shallow. Any help on good bcd options is much appreciated.
Kind Regards,
David
