In terms of what I specifically like about the K-2, I look for sort of an "all arounder" in most diving rigs. I'm not taking all my **** off and and scrunching through super tiny stuff, I'm probably not doing double stage dives with that rig, probably not putting a sidemount CCR on it--it's just pretty comfortable for "normal" OC cave diving. Goes on and off easy, the wing is the right shape and the buoyancy is down by your hips where it belongs. The weight pocket along the spine is perfect --we have sewed something along those lines into our homemade sidemount CCR rigs for a while, so that's a detail I appreciate. I'd have had a much harder time getting it set up right without Edd's input, he'll randomly film me while teaching some students and surprise me with it up on the big screen when I go over there--the "Eye of Sauron" . . . "Well that needs to move up and this needs to be shorter" and so on.
