Re: Frames/Stands: entanglement hazzard?

I used to dive with a stand (which carried Bailout as a bonus) now I don't. I could still do with some height assistance kitting up but I have chosen to take a path with my kit where everything is specified purely for diving, I've removed all the convoluted CF's that are designed for convience on the surface- everything has a diving purpose or it isn't there. I don't need the frame/stand to dive so its gone, I suppose entanglablility has been decreased but mainly it was just to purify the whole thing and reduce "crap" (pads, clips, handles and other nonsense)
