Recently I saw a video in which a guy wearing a BC similar to mine (back-inflation, weight integrated) seemed to have the "wings" of his BC reduced in size/volume with a series of straps or bungees (two or three on each side).
My question: Does anyone know anything about this? Is it common? It looked like he really streamlined the profile of the BC -- perhaps for a dive where he did not need the extra lift. Or perhpas it was a permanent thing.
I seem to remember seeing a guy from a distance last year at Dutch with a similar set-up.
Just curious. Any insights appreciated.
