  | Upside Down Evo Has anyone taken their evo out of the YBOD and but it in a trame frame and reverse the first stages....that is to place the valves near your head instead of your waist? If so how did it affect your trin/buoyancy. Did the hose lengths work or was it a complete rebuild? Thanks Tony Flaris

I think you have lost the plot. GO BEYOND THE DARK SIDE AND SEE THE LIGHT One of the reasons for a travel frame is that you can use any tanks that come to hand if standard inspo/evo tanks aren't available at your destination. Don't know about the others but when I took those photos I was experimenting to see what was possible and how the trim was. It worked fine, good trim and easy to get to the tank valves. Any other pearls of wisdom you would like to share? Simon |
