I'm a new diver thinking about a lightweight and compact travel BC and the Express Tech looks pretty good. I can see though that it really needs some D rings and I'm not familiar with whats available and how to add them.
Some of the above pictures look like they have some plate cut D rings which seem easy and obvious how to install. Some other pictures look like they have some standard welded wire D rings on webbing but it isn't obvious how they are attached.
What's the easiest way to add the wire D rings and are there any advantages or disadvantages to each type, eg. do the plate D rings have sharp edges that you wouldn't want to put the secondary hose it to stow it.
What about adding a crotch strap? What's the standard or easy way to do that?
Sorry if these are obvious questions.
