funkyspelunker:
why don't you offer us a review of your own? I'm sure we have a lot to learn from you since you "now dive the Stiletto".
Wow Funkyspelunker, you have really gone above and beyond on your diving and training, congradulations!
I'm not going to bother with a full review, I did a write-up some time back if you care to find it, and I've been vocal on a number of other threads as well.
After diving this for a year, maybe 50 dives, I'll give some thoughts for improvement.
First I think the configuration is great. Streamlined, adequate weight pockets, comfortable, overall a great BC.
I've been diving a BP/W for cold water diving, and here are a few things that I think Zeagle could improve on the Stiletto.
I have been diving a donut shaped wing, and find that I like that configuration better for singles. The Stiletto does not trap air often but it can. This is more of an issue with the Ranger, granted if one wants to dive double with the Ranger (few do that I'm aware of) the donut shape is not a good choice. But I've found the donut shape wings do not trap air as easily as a horseshoe shaped wing.
The pockets are too small. They fit the profile of the BC, but they are kinda useless for things other than maybe defog, or a small slate. I liked the larger Ranger pockets much better.
I'd like to see movable Drings rather than the sewn in DRings.
These are very minor criticisms, but Scott reads these posts, so I thought I'd throw them out. Overall I can not think of a BC that I'd buy over the Stiletto for travel, and singles diving.
