I like the LS in general. It's a solid rig. I have an older single bladder one. I will say that I wish it had more lift. I recently did a dive with 108s and a 7 mil, and it wasn't very fun. I had to pump an EXCESSIVE amount of air into it to maintain buoyancy and I went around looking like a turtle. I don't like that the bladder extends up to the shoulders. When completely full, the bc adds lift there and it messes with trim. I will admit, it's pushing the limits of the system but I think that there are some other rigs that could be more versatile.

Oh yea, don't start cave diving in sidemount. And don't stick no-mount stuff onto it.
