Howdy Eric,
Welcome to the board!
I enjoyed the photos, looks like an interesting blend of the old & new-ish. Take a shot with your vest inflated and/or you wearing it. I seems as though the reg. is going to sit at about neck-level? Maybe not? It would also be interesting to see the relationship of the reg. and vest and to what degree the vest, with air in it, is encroaching on the regulator. Creating a system where the two work together more harmoniously, while not compromising the positioning of the regulator, relative to your lungs, is something several of the very talented inventor-types here on the board have been working on for some time.
On a personnel note, I would like to be able to read your posts, but my OS is old enough to not have an easily accessed translator built in and I don’t have the patience to leave the board and run through Goog-translate and come back. Additionally, on the trips I have been very fortunate to make to your wonderful country, nobody seemed to appreciate it very much when folks would get off the plane, start yapping in English, and expect all the French to automatically understand. I had much more success making my best effort at French, which was terrible but a respectful gesture none the less, and then after a painful 2-3 minutes the French person could stand no more of it and just speak fluent English back to me. All of which is to say, how about
YOU run
your posts through the translator first, then we’ll do our best to untangle them.
Again, welcome in.
