Never ending story

Beautiful sunday last week so it was necessary to avoid UV radiation

A great (but cold) 110 minutes & -50m rEvo dive in Chindrieux (lake of Bourget, France).
Jump is the best moment

Other pics here.

salut Eric, joli,... mais un peut flou, les photo's :-)

but... on the second page, 3th picture: the rEvo is far to much away from the back of the diver: he must strap his harness better, and lower!

regards and dive safe

Hi Paul,

I remember he said he was too heavy and had to inflate his dry suit a lot.

Yep. But D-Day's pics of Robert CAPA were "slightly out of focus", too.

I hope to become so famous

Hi Paul,

Very nice dive..... i loooooove my rEvo !!

I see what you mean, but actually i believe the harness should be ok.
As Eric said i was too heavy, so once we went down with my 7.5 mm drysuit getting thiner i had to inflate the wing and the drysuit a lot... that might be the reason why the rEvo looks far from my back.

I don't think i can strap the harness better, it's already quite tight and i always feel the rEvo touching my back closely.

By the way, nice pics buddy... i'm really looking forward for our next BBQ-rEvo dive !!

Cheers!

hi Michael, in that case... do you use the dual crotch strapps?? tighten them more so the unit comes lower on your back: it will improve the breathing behaviour

Hi Paul,

No, i'm using a single one... i'll try with both, better tightened, and see how it goes.

Thanks for the advice!

Cheers
