Hi All,
I have just started diving again, my last dive 35 years ago. The abstinence was getting too hard to resist.
In the sixties I used (common in Scandinavia those days) a double 7 litre rig (two seven litre tanks). This was because I am fairly small in size and the double 7 felt better on my back than the single 14 litre tank. which I feel very clumsy with. On my retraining to optain an OW certificate, I used the single tanks available at the training centre but still the same old feeling, clumsy.
My questions are:
1. Are there still double pacs like these around?
2. Why do I not see them at the dive sites I visit. Nobody seems to know about them. Are they just out of fashion or?
Some one, please help me with my curiosity.
Safe diving to you all.
