When I meet German speakers on dive boats in the Red Sea with DIN regulators, they're almost certainly German or Austrian. When there's a German speaker with a yoke regulator, it's probable he/she is Swiss. I've asked, and to my surprise they've told me that Switzerland is about 50/50.Tim220171:Actually I think that most DIN systems are sold in Germany only . Here in spain they are predominately yokes. I have seen tanks for sale that have both adapters on them , so you can have the choice but most people Ive met from Europe seem to have the more common yoke system ( I myself have cressi sub mk7 1st stage which is a yoke )
More like 100%, in my experience.
Here in this part of Europe (Eastern), folks that own their own rigs tend to use DIN. But a huge proportion of regulators used for training are yoke; I think it may be because they get them used from the U.S. Donut inserts are very common.
Interesting that in Europe, at least German-speaking Europe and points east, the yoke system is referred to as INT (as in "international").
