Pull Dump

[Jawbone]

Typical for this board. I even did the worse - I made a comment on camera rig and laying at the bottom. I've just re-read the original question and my conclusion is the same as yours: he was probably refering to central position of elbow (like Halcyon wings).

If thats the case. Then the question does belong here. My bad!!

Well, if you guys ae correct and the question was about the location of the inflator hose connection to the bladder, I can answer the question.


It presents no problem, it's above the plate and even with the tank mounted quite high (I run my tanks high for valve access) I've never had a hose rounting interference.

I agree. Never had a problem myself with it and I run my tank on the higher side to.

Ya...he probably was more interested in the central location. It sounds like he is new to wings and is probably used to seeing a more left shoulder orientation and the central spot just looks different to him.

OTOH, we probably don't even think about that as we are pretty much used to that location as being 'normal'.

Tobin by the way. The angle compass mount is awesome. Lowered the profile of my compass alot. Thanks for a great product. Jason

Exactly what I was thinking.

I really don't udrestand this. What's the connection between camera rig and laying on the bottom?

waiting for "prey".

It's very likely that the original poster was actually just wanting to know about the "center" location and was using the term "pull dump" loosely to refer to the connection between the corrugated hose and the wing. We just fixated on the pull dump thing.

to me the question made sense since I noticed that there is little play where to vertically position a wing with center connection, if one uses a pulldump vs. an elbow.
The pulldump sticks out quite a bit more, and as I mentioned, does touch the first stage. But it works just OK (at least with my rel. small Poseidon 1st stage)

This can be achieved without laying at the bottom. How about better bouyancy control?

what does buoancy control have to do with anything here. I'm alway shocked that people think that you can't touch anything while diving. as long as it's a sandy bottom, have at it. silty bottoms are a different story
