Looking at a Halcyon Eclipse & wondering if it’s worth spending the money on?
My old BC (Apeks Black Ice) is on its last legs & would buy another, it’s been good - except for the terrible weak buckles on the shoulder straps which broke early on & were replaced with something more heavy duty.
I dive a lot, around 4/5 days a week, year round, single tank dives with a dumpy steel 12 litre tank plus 3 litre pony on a metalsub quick release bracket.
I wear a 7mm neoprene wetsuit.
Thinking of the Halycon with the 18kg (40lb) wing.
I’ve always been put off wings by the lack of adjustment, I have damaged shoulders from a dislocation & lots of weight training so struggle to get into anything to tight - but the cinch system seams to sort that issue out.
Any thoughts from owners?
