Buying a BC for the first time, stuck between the Zeagle Brigade and Seaquest Black

Don't mean to hijack this thread, but there was a point brought up about dumpable rear weights....

I was under the impression that the rear weights do not need to be dumpable, because you typically divide your weights about 70%/30% front/back when you use rear weights. Once you dump the front weights you should be sufficiently buoyant even with the rear weights. True or False?

In my opinion, that is true...

The Zeagle god has spoken! :god:


I agree, not needed.

I do like buying American. I do like products that are designed by people who actually use and support them. It sounds like a good product and BC to me, plus there are no comparisons on the warranties. Zeagle wins hands down there. I think I'm sold. :07: Your description of Larry showing the differences in quality was the kicker. Thanks for the info. Do scubaboard members still get a discount at ScubaToys? (I'm such a nub)
