More Info on the C45 Dual bladder doughnut wing?

[Sam_The_Submersible]

Hi there,

I'm researching on a suitable wing for double AL80's and stages.

Can anyone tell me more about the Hollis c45 doughnut dual? In particular how does the dual bladder operate? Is it purely for redundancy purposes?

any info would be appreciated.

Hi Sam, Good question. The C45 in dual or single configuration is suitable for AL80s and stages, although the benefit as you already mentioned is "redundancy". Especially in a technical application when carrying additional load or not diving dry. The dual wing looks and operates similar to the single C45, although has a 2nd inflator assembly and lower dump. Best Regards,
