    Is Halcyon the Gold Standard & Options?

    Hello Paul, Yes, the folks at Waterfront Diving. I've been going to this shop for a while and really like the folks who run the place. Talked to them a while back about bp/w combo and they use and sell Halcyon. I'm going to see if they rent one. Frank

    Is Halcyon the Gold Standard & Options?

    Hello Mandy, thanks for the reply. I'm just starting to get my head around the bp/wing config. I looked at the Dive Rite weight system. Is this a separate weight belt or do the pockets attach to the Dive Rite pac system?

    Is Halcyon the Gold Standard & Options?

    Bill, thanks for the input on my LDS. These folks have been great in talking with me about my equipment needs. I know I can get less expensive equipment online, but am conflicted because I want to see these folks stay in business and get paid for the time invested with me. Also, thanks for...
