BC to be used with drysuit

[Chris H]

I agree with Jon on this one.

I am a recent convert to the BP and wing for all of my diving instead of only with doubles. I will never go back.

I have a Dive Rite SS plate with the Rec wing (I also have Classic wings) and I've been very happy with it. I have been diving PST double 80s lately, but I have also used it with an E8-130 and a Faber 95. I know it is best to use a bladder specifically designed for a single tank, but I had pretty good luck with the Rec wing and a single. That being said, if you don't have doubles, I would definitely go with a wing designed specifically for a single tank.

I have heard many good things about Halcyon, but I don't have any firsthand experience with their wings.

This is a hot topic on nearly every scuba forum I've been on. There are many manufacturers out there, and I don't think you could go wrong with Halcyon or Dive Rite. Do a little homework before you buy. I think that Deep Blue has BP/Wing set-ups to rent. Gert will show you how to properly adjust it and you should be on your way to happier, more comfortable diving.

I just reread Jon's post and I guess this one says nearly the same thing Get a Backplate and a wing. You won't regret it.
