I've been diving with my Scubapro Superhawk NT bc since I bought it about 20 years ago. It is still in perfect condition and works great. This was a back inflated, jacket style bc before the wing era. So since it is back inflated, I still get the same diving position advantages of current wing style bcs but since it is also a jacket style, I get pockets which come in handy which is a feature that many wing style bcs don't have.
So my question is after 20 years of diving with my back inflated bc, are there are reasons to upgrade to the newer wing style with back plate bcs? I have never tried any of the new bcs yet.
