What event made you head toward/away from DIR?

Yeah, I know that, I was talking more in line with the whole stage bottle thing. Seeing divers at Wazee with these things can be very intimidating for newer divers.

As far as experience with other equipment, given all the body types (height, weight, and the whole male/female thing), in my opinion, it's a little more difficult to re-size a BP to accomodate these variations during an OW class than say that of a generic BC.

I'm not opposed to introducing the material, or letting people use my own, it's just the practical utilization of the BP equipment in a pool session or checkouts when you have a groups of 10-20 people.
