Just finished my basic open water certification today (woo hoo!!). After completing all the skills with the rental shop BC, I put on my brand new fresh from the box Zeagle Brigade. After hooking up the tank, etc. I stood up and immediately the loop connecting the webbing of the sternum strap to the RH side of the BC popped off. I didn't see how much stitching there was but it didn't seem like much thread. Anyway as an intrepid diver, I rethreaded some of the webbing straps through the cam buckle, and 5 mins later, the same thing happened on the LH side. Now I'm very disappointed because it seemed like real shoddy construction on an otherwise excellent BC. Anyway what is my next step? I plan on emailing Scubatoys, but would it be quicker to go through Zeagle? And is there any way to get a "beefier" sternum strap on my BC?
