Oceanic Excursion

I had a hard time deciding on my BC upgrade, and after tons of research and threads here, I decided on a Transpac. We went to the lDS yesterday and spent half the day trying on BC's, and I walked away with the Excursion. Man, what a comfortable piece of equipment this is! In my opinion it blew away the Transpac in features, comfort, and price. It's not quite as modular as the Transpac, and not really "tech" oriented, but for many of other reasons I went with it instead. Does anyone else here dive one?

Yup, I have an Oceanic Excursion, absolutely love it. Put an airsource 2 on it and really enjoy the streamlined feel I get having a back inflate, just plain works for me.

I picked one up at the end of the summer and have about 25-30 dives on it. Had to get a new inflator hose to but my AIR II on it. Great and comfortable BC. Wish it had a better pocket and some different placement of some of the attachment rings. Weight pockets or OK. I pretty picky in what I want in a BC.
