Hollis BCD's

[Murkdiver]

I have been looking into purchase my first BC, and I was wondering which of the Hollis BCs is the way to go. Does anyone know the advantages or drawbacks to the solo, the elite 2, the ATS, or the HD 100 systems.

If you think you want to go tech, I would get a BP/W. The harness is up to you though. The solo is a non adjustable, one piece design. You can adjust it, but it requires more work and moving d-rings and such. The Elite 2, has buckles that you can adjust. It's not exactly DIR due to the plastic adjustments, but will do you just fine and give you easy adjustments for your different diving.

The wing would depend on your diving conditions, how much weight you wear, and where you will be diving. Most likely you will want a metal plate, unless you will be more of a traveling/tropical diver

Hope this helps a little Bring on more questions....that is what we are here for
