what's the French system? Considering where sp comes from that sounds like a likely route....

Wait a sec!

Scubapro is Italian, nothing to do with our French neighbours :nono: :nono:

I tried to get a picture of the French system, couldn't come up with a decent one, if and when I find one I'll post a link.

Actually, the other day i was working at my brother's scuba shop and a lady came in and she said she hated the scuba pro strap cuz it was hard to adjust and it would come loose while diving. I'm not sure how they are cuz i dont have a scuba pro bc, but this is probably a good thing, i doubt scuba pro would make something worse than they already have.

If she had that problem she had no clue on how to hook up a tank.

really? Why do I always send my warranty cards to France - confused now. Hey, ho!!

Still we're all one big happy family now - aren't we?!

We just returned from two weeks of diving in Cuba, where we had to continually switch beetween stubby steel and standard aluminimum 80 tanbks, and sometimes change tanks quickly. Our two ladyhawk and my ancient classic all worked flawlessly, with rarely the need to tighten or adjust.

Whatever they do, I sure hope that SP doesn't change that superb fastening system.

As far as I can tell, although SP products come from many different parts of the world, it is a subsidiary of Johnson Outboard motors of the US>

According to Scubapro Tech services, its just an "add on" piece that just makes it easier to adjust than the velcro. Waiting for a sample.
