I would be diving both doubles and singles. Probably just singles for a while until I can set aside some cash for doubles.
 
I also have to schlep a set of doubles (LP104s) up some stairs. It's easiest to carry on my back, but then I have a hard time setting them down on the floor without killing myself. I starting carrying them in reverse, chest against the backplate, arms through the shoulder straps and hands linked in back. I can set them on the floor by squatting, and I don't end up lying there like a turtle. Just a thought. And yes, it does hurt to carry them in a T-shirt, no matter how you do it.
 
... hide them in the bushes and chain them to the 1st floor balcony.

Just kidding... good workout. Hope you don't forget too many things with the contraption on your back.
 
I tried the BP and Doubles this weekend an actual dive, and found them comfortable with a farmer john wetsuit. Even after a long walk, it was still fairly comfortable. The BP was much more streamlined that my old rig...I'll be using the BP from now on.
