lhpdiver:My wife swears by her SP LadyHawk.
dive4funOften:Try Seaquest Diva - most ladies dive with this bc
Firefyter:Not functional? Most ladies dive with Seaquest? Do you mind letting us know just how you came about this statistic? I know several ladies that dive, and NONE of them use a Diva, so could I say that NO ladies dive with Divas?? Back to the subject of the original question, I know several that dive the Zena's, and they all love them.
dive4funOften:Gosh sorry I really did not mean to get you so upset. Zenas have no pockets and if you are flat chested they may be comfortable. Sorry I don't fit that catagory. Divas have built in sports bras. I guess you would have to be a chick to get this concept! Zenas also have strange weight release systems!
Seaquest has much better lift: http://www.aqualung.com/products/bc_size_lift_chart.html
Firefyter:I'm not upset, but when someone quotes bogus statistics, such as "Most ladies use Seaquest Divas", then I have to call BS. Especially when their reasons for these bogus statistics are also bogus, as Scott pointed out in the post previous to this one. I don't have to be a chick to recognize BS when I see it.
The problem here is that too many people report bogus statistics as though they were factual, and new divers don't have the knowledge to tell the difference. If you have a preference, and state it as such, then everyone acknowledges it and respects it as an individual preference. Please don't mislead people with inaccurate information and statistics.
ScottZeagle:I have personallyfitted many women who were not flat chested into the Zena BC with no problem. The component system allows you to swap out pieces for a custom fit.
