New BC's at DEMA?

[ScubaRon]

I am getting ready to get a new BC. Anything new at DEMA that is worth waiting for?
- How does the SeaQuest Vision look?
- What did Mares, Dive Rite and Zeagle show in new BC's?

Mares showed an improved H.U.B. that is similar to last year's, but adds an integrated DPV, fins, tank, drysuit, and hand-operated compressor. The compressor is fitted with a 200ft hose that is to be attached to the boat, or a surface float, and allows the diver to replenish his air supply in the event of an OOA situation.

:shades: :angel:

Other than the Oxycheq and Halcyon Eclipse were there any other noteable single tank wings?

Also were there any back inflate BCD's that use wings similar to the above two?

I heard a rumor that both Dive Rite and OMS are introducing their own versions of the "donut" wing, IE: Pioneer/Oxycheq.

And as usual, a comment was that the OMS version was vaporware.

Didn't bother with OMS, but DiveRite did have a new 30# single bladder in addition to the travel wing. They call it venture.

Halcyon's 30# and 40# Eclipses are quite nice, by the way.

Was the new Oxycheq #30 with a separate bladder introduced at DEMA? Thanks.

A 44lb singles wing with internal bladder was introduced. Patrick gave an update on them in this thread earlier today.

The super enhanced version is a JIM suit. Unfortunately, you can still overbreathe the regulator.
