It is interesting in a recent poll to see relative numbers of OW, AOW, Rescue, etc. of SB members who participated in the poll. This poll is to ask you your diving level, and what type of BC rig you normally use: BP/W, back inflate, or jacket-style. (The format is limited by the 12 choices permitted in SB polls.)
 
Perhaps technical diving in general should be added. For what its worth, I've gone as far as rescue on the recreational route and have a bp/w but also have taken technical classes.
 
for me personally, the harness = unlimited adjustability+no chest strap = comfort

started out with BC, after 50 dives tried BP/W,never turned back :D

Open water, horse collar (when I use a BC, that is, which isn't often).
 
Just because people participate, how do you know they tell the truth?

Count me as one who hasn't participated for years.

what is with you? :D I for one either remain silent or participate honestly, assume only the minority of insane divers are active posting :D

all of the above. how and where I am diving dictates what type of bc I wear, if one at all
