Has any one fitted a BP/W for some one around 5ft tall?
One of my student's mothers has asked me to look into BP/Ws for her 10yr son and herself. They both are around 5' tall. The primary brand on our island is Apex. The mother has tried on an APEX and she thought it was a little long in the torso. She ask me if I would look around for her. My BP/Ws are DSS (Large), OMS, Halcyon and Dive Rite. I have never really paid attention to their length before, so I suppose I need to measure them.
I have been looking at internet sites for back plate size specifications and I just have not see any. The closest is DSS's, theirs comes in different sizes based on the diver's height with small fitting 5'3'' and below. What has others used? Right now I am thinking about sending her to DSS...at least for the back plate.
