Broady on YD is your man for them and they are not 'general release' as I know them. They are terribly well made and he did mention something about a limited release run. He was slowed down due to personal issues this year however.

Except better made.

And although difficult to see, it's not a tube but a cover.

Is that Paul Bailey on Open Circuit Rebreather at 2:50? The problem with having a dayglo drysuit is everyone recognises you

Nice video, Malin really is picturesque on a good day with a good camera.

So whats the story on the case/frame? Who made them, when, why isn't it available any longer? (as implied) It looks interesting.

Mr G made it for himself, they have never been available although I think there was a plan to make them so. Mr G fell of his bike and is just getting back into action - both with the bike and the diving.

That's the one, he couldn't figure out how his bailouts had dropped 50 bar in one dive

Graham made 3 case, for him Nik and Geoff D. He was looking at the Sentinel in Malta with a gleam in his eye. Very nice cases and well made. You could contact Graham directly and ask him but not sure he was fussed or bothered to put them into production. He's one of life's fettlers!
