The problem with the sytem was a tendency for the shot to form a self supporting arch and fail to fall out of the pac when needed. Smaller diameter shot resolves the problem.

The inflator hose was low profile and low drag with most of the LP hose inside the hose itself. This was quite streamlined and needed only avery short LP hose.
I saw an updated Atpac on sale on E-bay a couple years ago. It incorporated a more modern BC style set of shoudler straps and cumberbund and actually looked pretty modern.

Here is a picture of their amazing Failsafe first stage. It is two balanced piston regulators in series to form one big regulator. Either piston can fail and the regulator will still work.
The DIR guys would love it.
