Rodales claims that it is too stiff and slippery.They didnt like the continuous one piece velcro stating that it would be hard to access a pocket in the middle.They say its less convenient than individual pocket belts.They also claim his weights are larger than average.The review stated that the all mesh backed models tend to be very slippery against fabric drysuit material.
I also own an all mesh belt from heath.The things i liked about his belt was the simplicity and durability.Its everything i wanted in a weight belt.I dont need a bunch a bells and whistles that are basically more failure points.
Those of you that have dealt with heath know he is one heck of a nice guy.I think rodales definitely gave him a bum review.Could you imagine if rodales did a review of a bp/wing setup.A bc that has no quick disconnects,no padding,only two dumps,and no gadgets.It would be ugly.
Dont let it get you down heath as you make a great belt.Who knows,maybe if you spent some serious money advertising in rodales each month you would have got a higher rating.
