Heck, there was one version of US Divers reg that had the strap attachment points built into the mouthpiece.
I'm going to have to excavate my "spares & parts" bins out in the shop, might be one out there.

I've been using it as a training device for my newly certified father. "See this Dad? You'll see this on dive boats, and it's COMPLETELY wrong for the following reasons...."

taking into account the information found in the authors past articles, I am not suprised by the content of this months article.

You mean Michael Ange? Is there something in his lists of qualifications and experience that makes you think he's not qualified to write these articles?

But you're right, the content did leave a lot to be desired. Imagine touting using a bp/w, doubles, and a long hose for your second stage and back up around your neck. Why do they force this stuff on new divers?

...as did this:

Senior Technical Training Staff for SDI & TDI

From the articles I have read in such magazines, any yokel with a pen and a passing interest in diving is qualified. I'm guessing that you have not read some of his past articles or did not take notice of some of the things stated in them.
