Scooter with chest mounted rebreather

[PilsDiver]

Hey guys I scooter all the time with mine in both open water and the cave. This DPV ring was created which makes it even easier but even without the scooter ring it’s not too bad.

With the scooter ring it’s fantastic. The added benefit of the scooter ring is that it adds another attachment point for the CM to your crotch scooter ring which if you have an issue with the unit riding up it keeps the unit in place.

Dive Rite - Chest Mount CCR Scooter Ring Some of the feedback that we hear with the "Choptima" is that it is difficult to scooter with or use your DPV. Dive Rite has created a unique and simple solution for this making scootering on your Chest Mount Rebreather a snap. Simply weave the webbing...

That DPV ring looks interesting! Scooting with the choptima is nice, the hardest part is clipping(and unclipping) the scooter to the crutch strap D-ring! :-/

If you swap the lower attachment straps out to bungees, you can lift the chop up a little bit and reach under the unit to clip your scooter on, YMMV.

I got one of these, installed, then realized that with my body type I don’t really need it. Yet, I could easily see how someone built differently could benefit from it.

For me, more important on longer rides (>60min) is some kind of harness, to spread the load away from the ding-dong area. Otherwise, no bueno, and may also interfere with plumbing

Incidentally, I noticed that at least one major DPV manufacturer (SeaCraft) now sells a cross-bar, attaches to the crotch strap, same purpose as a harness. For diy types, shouldn’t be much of a challenge
