    Default Nomad Sidemount System FS

    Up for sale is my Nomad, complete with transpac, 17" bungees, and the butt plate. It is set up and ready to dive. I have about a hundred or so dives in it using HP 130's, and up to 2 80 AL stages. Plenty of lift. It's in great shape. I'm only selling it because I've moved on to the Oxycheq Recon and have no need for 2 SM systems. Asking $375.00 plus shipping, Paypal accepted.

    If interested please contact me via email at bil_lindstrom@yahoo.com. (that's an underscore between bil and lindstrom). I'll check back here as well, but you'll get a much faster response via email.

    Not sure of the size, it isn't marked. I am 5'8" and weigh 160 lbs. I bought it from Edd at Cave Adventurers maybe a year and a half ago.

    The size should be on the inside of the shoulder pads. Those and the webbing length are the only difference in the sizes. A large has enough webbing to convert it to an XL with the purchase of longer pads. It's an easy conversion I've done before. Bil, I'm guessing Edd put you in a large.

    I know the question will probably get asked and others will want to know so here it goes.


    Why the switch in systems Bil?

    What finally sold you on the Oxycheq?

    Thanks Rob. The Transpac is a ML, I still can find nothing on the wing.

    The wing is the same on all sizes.

    I believe the Small Nomad EXP uses a smaller wing with only approx. 45 lb. of lift.

    Actually, the new Nomad EXPs have a larger 60lb wing. The original Nomad has 50 lbs of lift. The Nomad only comes in M-XL.
