I have always had a problem keeping my BCD from 'ridding up' on me. Halfway through a dive I would always have to stop and pull the belly strap down from around my chest. Sometimes several times. My body type then, and even now, is not conducive to keeping that strap in place.
That was before I lost about 60#, and I now have a BC that is too large.... and rides up. Thus, I'm looking at getting a new BC. I have been looking at several different styles (all online so far as my LDS is very small) and noticed that on the more 'techie' types there is a crotch strap.
1] Would you recommend adding a crotch strap to a vest type BC? Thus allowing me to keep the too large BC.
2] Are there any vest types that come with this feature, or will I have to go to the back inflate styles?
I like what many people here are saying about the back inflation types, and I'm not ruling them out. I just want to make sure I know all my options.
Thanx
