Hello -

I've tried to find pictures of the back of the BC (non-i3 version) to verify if there is any type of traction pad or rubberized surface for the tank to rest against on the BC, from what I can tell its only the fabric of the BC. Can someone please confirm (or provide picture of the back of the bc) if there is anything more to the mounting/contact area for the tank? I'm just a bit concerned about the tank slipping.


Thanks!
 
Wanderlust68,

the Axiom does not have a rubberized surface or traction pad but does have a rigid tank plate and the GripLock tank band system. here is a video on the grip lock system.

?GripLock? Tank Band Assembly? - YouTube

this tank plate and traction system is more than adequate to secure your tank and prevent slippage. should you have any more questions feel free to contact me. happy and safe diving.
