Did you get padded straps with the kit or is that something you added?

Welcome to the Dark Side. You are now one of us. Soon, you'll start tying things with caveline (no more zip-ties), and a light canon will become a "must-have".

Soon enough, I expect to see those shoulder pads in the Used Stuff For Sale area. I looked at them while at ST and I talked to a couple of the sales guys there. Rejected.

Nice rig. ENJOY!!!!

Light Canon? No self respecting diver from the darkside would use a light canon. Canister light is the only way to go.

Anyways, congrats on the purchase. What is supposed to be the benefits of crossing the shoulder straps?

Wouldn't think I would like a red wing not that it matters much, but that is actually pretty nice looking.
