I read about this in Scuba Diving Magazine and recently saw one at my LDS. It looks very streamlined, as the bladder actually wraps around the tank. I'm wondering how stable it is in the water though, and what it's like in certain conditions...like when you roll of the back of a boat and the first thing to hit the water is your tank...or how it makes you float on the surface.

For fairness sake: No, I have not dove one nor seen one before.


Soley my personal opinion and initial observation:

Every boat I have ever been on has you stand rigged tanks against the gunwale and then either snap them in retainers and/or bungee them in.

Consider wear and tear on wing and neoprene sleeve or the special handling required to prevent it.

I used to beg my mom not to send me to school wearing anything that would make the other kids:

1. make fun of me
2. publically ridicule me
3. beat me up
