I use the Halcyon 18 pound lift horse shoe shaped wing....I have since 97....I went a month with a Halcyon 30 lb wing ( the doughnut), then my wife Sandra tried it, liked it much better than her Dive Rite, and suddenly I lost my 30 pound wingAnd if it doesn't make any difference then what is the reason for offering a donut? What IS the reason to choose a donut over a horseshoe?
But....I felt no advantage in anything with the 30....If anything, the 18 lb wing was slicker in the water....Both could be instantly dumpred and trimmed perfectly from any position I ever get myself into ( whether shooting video, grabbing lobster, whatever).
Stuart, if you dive with us in Palm beach some time, I will promise to show you all the tricks of getting these wings to work the way you want them to. We are at the point now, were we could go through 10 more pages of posts...or 20 minutes of a dive ..and the dive would be way better !
