OP
Wow. I was away from the forum for a 2 weeks and this took off again.
Bill, to answer your question who is flyin01. I am a Chicago area diver and have talked to a friend of yours who is a non- diver but excited about PonyPak. After they got done explaining it I told them I didn’t see the point It looked like you were reinventing the wheel. I went to your website and looked around and still didn’t see the point but wanted to keep an open mind about your design. I fully admit I am not the worlds most experienced diver so I decided to search ScubaBoard to see if there was any information on your product that would help me see the light. I was somewhat shocked to find nothing so I started this thread with a simple question and a link to your website. Now with 15 pages of opinions and facts I think I figured it out. I could see the PonyPak appeal to new divers who want a simple packaged solution in one purchase like a traditional BCD. More advanced divers who know what they want based on their experience and dive interest may prefer the traditional pony setup. As for me I think I am leaning towards a tank mounted traditional setup. I hope the launch goes well and to see you out on the lake soon.
