Some truly awful claims on there. Some terrible mis-information aimed at novice diver. Please feel free to debate these claims...

"Less than 30 pounds is not suitable for ocean diving.
Less than 48 pounds is not suitable for twin cylinders."
HOW MUCH POSITIVE LIFT IS ENOUGH?
Female Eagle Z1-F = 35 pounds. - Single cylinder & Pony
Male Eagle Z1 = 48 pounds. - Single cylinder & Pony
Eagle Z1 Tech = 60 pounds. - Single or Twin cylinder
Twin Wing Z1 = 100 pounds. - Single or Twin cylinder :shocked2::shocked2::shocked2:
