So I am not a DIR diver nor do I intend to follow the DIR ways completely but none the less I do embrace many of the DIR gear system ideas but there is one thing about harnesses I dont quite understand.
I am currently still using a back inflate bc (knighthawk) but am moving to a bp/w setup asap but on my bc I have a chest strap and I have tried diving with and with out a chest stap but prefer to dive with it. I feel more secure with the chest and crotch straps. So why is it a no-no to have a chest strap on a DIR rig.
I really like the DSS harness with those waterjet cut D-rings and the things DSS calls poly point rings. are these type of items discurraged for some reason.
I have decided to make my own harness simply because I dont like the plastic buckles and padding on all other harnesses. Thanks
