Hello! I am new to diving and new to this board.
I have read most of the threads on BCDS but I can't make up
my mind.
I need to get some feed back on four BCD's. The Ladyhawk, Genesis Athena, Dacor elite and the Seaquest diva LX.
I have tried on the ladyhawk and the Seaquest diva LX. I liked them both. No one in my area has the other two to be able to try them on to see how I like the fit.
Any advice you could give me would be greatly appreciated.

I know these have been compared before here, and you might find the information you need already here. Happy diving!

I havn't read the article yet, but Rodales just ran a review of women's BC's tested by women. It might be worth looking at. =-)

I was just going to tell you a story about a bad experience someone had with that BC... I guess I wont tell you now... It might ruin your day, if you already bought the BC... If its not too late,
