Sidemount diving originated as a matter of necessity as cave divers needed more streamlined equipment to negotiate tight restrictions. For years the equipment was homemade and cavers simply modified other gear to use as sidemount. In recent years sidemount diving has seen phenomenal growth and equipment is readily available from a variety of manufacturers. It is not just a fad or a tool for cave divers and we see it being used in a wide variety of environments.

On their website, the technical SCUBA diving brand Hollis asserts that they have, “become a leader in the sidemount market,” and they go on to say that sidemount diving, “is not just a fad and not just a tool for cavers, it’s here to stay and is growing.” Hollis has proven their commitment to sidemount diving with a series of sidemount BCDs designed to cover a wide range of diving needs. For their latest offering, the SMS75, they worked directly with Edd Sorenson to incorporate his recommended design features and after several prototypes and much testing the first production models were delivered to Cave Adventurers for a demo day on April 2, 2014 at Jackson Blue Spring on the banks of beautiful Merritt’s Mill Pond in Marianna.
