Saved my pennies, got home tonight from my local dive shop with my new Hollis X55 wing ($330), aluminum backplate ($90), backplate pad ($85! For a pad?), cam bands ($60), Elite2 XL-XLL harness ($130), quick release weight system ($165), utlity pocket ($27), and single tank adapter ($85).
That's almost $1k for a BCD folks. All brand new and sealed.
The Elite2 harness was short 3 D-rings, the X55 wing exhaust hose is way too short, the backplate holes don't match up with the holes in the pad, the single tank adapter doesn't even look like the one on the web site and is going to gouge my tank up, the crotch strap on the Elite2 isnt long enough and it's supposed to fit someone 6'5" (I'm 6'2").
Now, I actually do like their stuff, but something is going on here with what I purchased.
Though I would post this for others. It's all true and an accurate description. I sent an email to the company and will report on any reply I receive.
