I've got about 60 dives on my Brigade and I love it. Get your trim weights right in the back and you won't have any trouble on the surface. If you have it sized right it will fit like a glove, very comfortable. I couldn't be more satisfied.

Just received my Brigade, and it fits perfect (on land) so far. I cant wait to get it wet, hopefully real soon. I will have to spend some time trimming it out, as this is my first back inflate with the rear trim pockets. I will report back once it's wet.

Thanks for all the great replies. I think I am going to get the Brigade. How long has Zeagle been it business?

So is the Brigade an Escape with a different bladder or do I have that mixed up?

I've asked myself the same question.
Part of Larry's description on Scubatoy's web site: "I pulled the Bladder off the Escape, and put it onto my old Ranger - and Presto!! I had the perfect BC!"
Larry?

Just to comfort you in your decision, whatever brand you choose, back inflate bc doesn't need a huge adjustment from you, but it make a hell of a difference on your trimming. The best part is that it doesn't take you 25-50 dives to achieve such a good trimming.
I don't think that you could go wrong with the Brigade, since I own a Stiletto. The only thing that made me chose the Stiletto over the Escape and Brigade was the fabric of the bladder and in bonus the stainless d-ring compared to the plasctic one of the Escape.

The Brigade has stainless steel D-rings.
