Anyone dive this set up?

Just got an e-mail from them... it's being shipped out thursday.. any good websites or threads that explain the best way to adjust the webbing? Too bad i just had surgery so no testing it out for another couple months

Welcome to the "dark side", there's a lot of discussions on the BP/W merits, setup, etc. on this board. But for adjusting the webbing, here's a couple:

As for the weights, you can have a standard weight belt but you can also use trim pockets. I need only 7-8lbs of weight so I've got a trim pocket on my tank strap with 5lbs and the rest on my belt (also on a weight pocket) in case I need to dump some weight. Halcyon also sells a weight system for BP/W that you can use on most BP/W. It will probably fit Salvo since the owner/founder of Salvo came from Halcyon (that's another long story).

you mean the slots were rough so you had to grind them so they wouldn't ruin the cam bands?

Yup , but i dont run my cam bands thru the plate , i use the Sta . Pretty much did the grinding to protect my fingers . BTW yes the h ACB pockets fit , actually the fit any plate with a hog harness and probably fit most comfort harnesses too. The new ones mount to the webbing , not the plate .
