My team is using the Genesis Cobra BC's We have been using them for years and have never had problems with them. They are a jacket style BC and at one point started to offer weight integration, but have recinded back into non-weight integrated... In my professional opinion (read opinion) I would stay away from the weight integration and stick with a traditional weight belt. For the reason that if u need to take ur rig off for any reason (push thru, gear correction, anything really) you will maintain your position on the bottom easier, especially in a drysuit or thick wetsuit. I like the jacket style bc's for public safety diving because they traditionally position you in a better position when on the surface. Which in the majority of the operation is where you will most likely be, awaiting sonar scans or rescans, positioned as a safety diver, in water tender...etc Also for our team background all of our divers are PSD, DR1-Specialist at a mininmum and we primarily dive quarrys, ponds, lakes, creeks, and rivers mostly in zero viz situations.
