Hi Nathan,

I was wondering if you've had that second chance to try out the Rogue? If so, what were your impressions this time?

In particular, I'd like to know if you had perhaps tried threading a trim weight into the tank band which I'm told by other back inflation users would help with not being pushed forward on the surface. I've always used jackets and am very keen on the Rogue, but unwilling to put down the money until I know more about this surface face forward issue.

Thanks!

We (husband and I) each have 2 back inflate BCD’s (Biolite and Transpac) and we do put trim weights in the tank bands. I have not experienced any surface face forward issues. Same with my husband.
