TSandM:If I had it to do over, I would NOT: Buy a console computer. My husband and I, for reasons I can't clearly remember, decided that wrist-mounted gauges would be too much hassle. We were wrong. Consoles are too much hassle. Either they hang, or you clip them up to something and then have to pull them out to look at them. I have since bought a wrist computer and intend to give up the console. I would also NOT: Equip my BC with an Air2. It seemed like a good idea at the time, eliminating a hose and improving streamlining. It is a very awkward device to use for air-sharing, and even more complicated if you have to do an ascent. If I had bought a second second stage, converting my gear to a DIR setup would be much simpler as well.
peterbkk:But, with one thin velcro strap, this writing slate does not stay put. If you put it on comfortably, when the suit compresses under pressure, it slides down to your wrist. Or it slips around behind your arm. If you put it on tight enough to stay in place, it cuts off circulation to the hand. Great idea but poorly designed.

Rick, why did you change to DIN?Rick Inman:I bought an Atomic M1 reg last year and got the yoke first stage. I have since converted it to DIN, which I should have gotten in the first place for the same price, instead of having to buy the 50.00 conversion.
