Since your s/n is 57 and not on the list, it probably meant that you bought it 2nd-handed ?If so, then you need to sign and mail the waiver form to Jetsam before they notify me to send an invitation out for you to join the list. If you are the original owner, then you have been missing a lot for a long time... Either way, contact Kim/Gordon about getting invited to the list! |

Second hand from Steve James (who i belive is on the list). Yes i have contacted Gordon so we will see what happens. I am really keen to read through the archive! Mark |

| Dude ![]() Current Rebreather/s: | Quote: (Originally Posted by buggeriamold) Second hand from Steve James (who i belive is on the list). Steve James was supposed to require that you sign and send the jetsam disclaimer form to KISS HQ before shipping you your rebreather. Maybe that wasnt in the old contracts. On mine I have to get the buyer to sign the kiss docs and send it in first.Yes i have contacted Gordon so we will see what happens. I am really keen to read through the archive! Andy |

| Dude ![]() Current Rebreather/s: | Quote: (Originally Posted by AnneMarie) Note the butt mounted lift bag, I am sure it says in George's website that this is DIR, do you think my buddy will be able to get to it!!! LOL Where did you get that butt thing from. I mean the stand bolted to the KISS backplate. Looks interesting, wouldnt mind something like that for the Sport Kiss.Also. My KISS looks naff with the standard jetsam lead pigtail weights. AP valves wouldnt sell me the fancy chrome ones. Source? Do you bother with hose covers. I do so like scoping out other peoples rigs and pinching ideas. |

No, and why should the KISS gang be happy by being associated to DIR ? ![]() I am sure most people are just trolling here, but DIR is a little more than having 2 stages on the left and 1-piece webbing and a backplate... ![]() |

Oh sorry, you meant the case stand ? It is part of the package from Portland Oceaneering when they made the SS case for the Classic-KISS.No, it wouldn't fit the Sport-KISS, but easy to make one though. Quote: Also.

It was mine, I sold it to the person Ammers bought her KISS from. too much weight low down on the unit and I didnt need it, were my reasons. You can get the from Portland Oceaneering, but they wont fit the sports. Doesnt stop you asking them to make you one though!Quote: (Originally Posted by Andy M) Also. My KISS looks naff with the standard jetsam lead pigtail weights. AP valves wouldnt sell me the fancy chrome ones. Source? Funny, I ordered mine direct from AP, along with some scrims. If you want some, drop me a line.As for hose protectors, I've put some on to protect the back of the loop, not worried about the front bit. A better way to protect the loop is to velcro it down onto the harness (at the shoulders) that cuts out big loopy bits sticking out the side of your widget. /Zak
