Most of us know about the FRV, Terry Maas developed it. I don't know of anyone who uses it.
-
i know a little...i have attended two seminars about it and the last two blue wild events and spoken a little with Terry and one of the other guys doing the development.
they are incredible but expensive...that is the long and short of it...supposedly they dissapear on you once underwater and are very steamlined, the computer and mech are all very advanced and fully redundant, the cylinder can be refilled from any dive tank. and the software is genius with alarms and inflation if you exceed your max depth or max time.
the drawback is the pricetag.
I hope the price will eventually drop below a grand and maybe I will try to get one.

I agree with you

judah i didnt know terry was at blue wild, wish i had known it would of been great to talk with him. Anyway i cant help but think this thing would be combersome
-
He wasn't at this past one. He was at the one before. There were three others developers there though
-
Oh, i see. thanks for clarifying.

I love the concept but I think it need a few years and a few improvements. But once it gains a little popularity and is refined a bit (and price drops) I think it would be a great piece of equipment.
