I'm sorry if this thread is redundant, but I've read so many threads about BP/W that my eyes hurt and I still haven't found the basic answer to my question. My BC is almost 20 years old and, while a little ratty from use, maintenance has kept it very serviceable. I know soon I will need to replace it. Most of the BP/W posts I've read discuss problems or technique issues around the BP/W selection and use. The only thing I've seen that comes close to justifying a BCD design switch is buoyancy center of gravity. Some day soon I'll need to rent a BP/W to see how it works for me. But in the mean time, please share your decision process with me. Thanks.
