I wonder how long it will be before this makes it onto the website? I talked to Leon at DEMA about the wing and the answer was in a couple of weeks. Then I talked to him about the wing at the South FL Dive Show, and he said a couple of weeks. Here we are over 4 months later and still no wing marketed. I guess I should just call him, but it seems silly that you have to be in the know in order to be aware that an item is available. Tribal knowledge I guess???

I was just bitching about the amber on my HUD during high ambient light dives. I'm not color blind (or I'd be out of a job), but the amber is hard for anyone to see when diving in very light conditions. I kind of wish the HUD would just blink green for above setpoint, blink red for at setpoint, and solid red for below setpoint. Anything below setpoint should be getting your attention anyway. I believe there is another thread on the idea of manufacturers settling on an industry standard, whatever it may be.
