Imported post <font color='#0000FF'>Continuing my venture in replacing my BCD. The one I have my eyes on now is the Buddy, commando or Pioneer. I've been told that it is a BCD that you either love or hate it! I understand they are durable and have good after sales services, this is a plus point. Now I'm slightly confused on the Ap200 valve or Auto Air. I was told that Auto air replaces the octopus, not something I'm happy about - can one have both?
Also is the main difference of the Commando and Pioneer being the pioneer doesn't look like a potato bag? at £40 difference I hope there are other pros to it.
PS Also spotted the Guardian BCD forum here, but can't find a site with a picture of it.
