Sidemount diving took technical diving, especially cave diving, by storm. Are we going to see the same thing happen with SM CCRs? Are SM CCRs just for explorers or for everyday tech divers? Join this panel of designers, explorers, manufacturers and instructors who will discuss what goes into manufacturing, diving and using a side mount CCR. Configuration, work of breathing, streamlining and standardizing are a few of the challenges in building a rebreather that will allow exploration to go beyond the current limitations of backmount.
