Hi all,

Great clip. Brings back memories of dives in haloclines back in the Caribbean.
Your posts in the TDS about where to put ballasts in a SM configuration were very helpful.

That is a great video. It looks like you clip your bottles to waist d-rings. It looks like you have a Nomad or at least the Nomad buttplate and it looks clear of clips. I am guessing it keeps the al 80's from rising. Pretty good configuration.

Yes the tanks are clipped to D rings at the waist and can be moved further forward as gas is used out of the tanks and they become more buoyant to make sure they stay in horizontal plane with the body.

Nope not a Nomad or even a Nomad buttplate.
The Razor Harness is my own design.

It's awesome... as i said, it looks a lot more stable than other solutions i've seen (i.e. nomad and armadillo).
Any more info on it?

The Razor Harness does not have an integrated bc so you can add whatever you need.

The concept is a modular system with lift suited to the type of diving you are dong, the environment you are diving in and the equipment load you are carrying.

In the video clip the buoyancy device I was using has a 3l capacity so around 7lbs of lift.

I will have more details on my website shortly.
I will post here and let you know when it is up.
