This an awesome Kickstarter but has the potential to turn into an awful mess: Formlabs ran a Kickstarter to fund a stereolithography-based 3D printer, which resulted in 3D Systems suing Formlabs and Kickstarter for patent infringement. The lawsuit is ongoing, as is Formlabs' production of the printer to fulfill the pledges... What will happen? I have no idea. But this might result in some sort of precedent about what Kickstarter's actual legal relationship with the projects is. (I.e. do they have any responsibility or not)

That thing is idiotic on so many levels. Your diving kit being both on your back and the surface doesn't mean that you can now go diving with no training. Dragging that thing behind you against the wind, waves and current is going to be a lot more work than carrying a bottle on your back. There is no backup air source or method for doing a safe ascent in case the compressor quits or the line breaks. This thing doesn't give you any reason to not have adjustable buoyancy, because your wetsuit's buoyancy is going to change, at the very least. Diving while not neutrally buoyant is not fun and not safe. Lot of people use the frog kick with scuba gear, why would this thing have anything to do with the kick you're using?
