This is an excellent opportunity to get the low-down on the Freediver Recovery Vest. It's also a chance to meet Terry Maas, a very well-known and respected diver/spearo.

and here are some photos of the FRV. please excuse any poor quality of the images (it's just a phone camera and the operator is dubious at best rofl ) but the vest itself is very innovative.

I saw that thing at the Blue Wild Expo last year and the year before. Terry was letting everyone try it on and inflate it. I was really impressed.

I hope he will be doing a demo down here in SoCal soon.
