Ya’ll may want to go down to a dive shop and take a look at b/c costs, try thinking like a complete newbie who is scared to death at the thought of changing out a hose on a regulator, those people do not possess the knowledge or experience to even begin to deal with unlimited options associated with the best mix and match of this generic plate, that webbing, where to put, let alone how many, D rings, lift etc. they buy jacket b/c’s because they used a loaner and it involves no thought! I agree this set up is pricy but look at the Atomic b/c, even the hydros pro or the average shop sold b/c and the price comes more in line with what people are paying for plain old stuff. To expensive? Yes, at least for me but I hope they prove very popular so that the price on the used market slides into the reasonable realm.
