Decoweenie's Travel Frame?

Snug fit around scrubber, light weight , tall enough to make suiting up easy, fit tanks of choice.....

Better trim in water than the YBox....

I have been using without a backplate for a few months now and have had no back pain issues.

Ditto this, but with a backplate/harness (a slightly modified version of what I used on my twins). Diving the Vision with the box, I had back pain (lower back). No such issues with the Travelframe to date (5 hours or so - I'm a newbie).

Happy to meet up and compare KT box to Travelframe (I'm Oxford based). I went for the Travelframe because one came up for sale on here - otherwise, I'd probably have a KT.

Cheers,
