I am looking for a "travel" BC. The ATS looks good. I currently use a Halcyon stainless backplate. A little cumbersome to pack for airline travel. I am very interested in the ATS. Do you have any pricing and sizing info?
Thanks
Jim

Thanks for the quick reply! I saw that info on the website. I will probably mainly use single tank for my travel destinations. Any pricing info availiable yet?

Hi Nick

Nice looking product line! can’t wait to get my hands on some of the stuff down here in Oz. I have a question about the HTS, is it strictly a padded back-pad or is there an option to “stick” a SS or alu back-plate in there?

cheers

Hi Linder,

Sorry for the delay. The HTS is a back pack style harness, which has the option of being used with singles or doubles. For singles the included cam bands or STA can be utilized. Or for doubles, an optional SS or AL backplate can be placed behind the harness and is secured between the harness and wing/band assembly. Additionally, the nylon adjustment straps on the shoulders are woven through the top backplate slots for increased stability.

Hope this helps.

Thanks,
 
are there any plans to make anything bigger than XL in harnesses?

Hi Bob,

The HTS and Elite are the only harnesses which come in sizes, whereas the XL is the largest. The Solo and Switchback come in one size and custom cut to fit just about any diver size.

The XL size in general fits most up to 6'8" and 300 lbs. depending on exposure/thermal suit. Let me know which harness you are interested in and your measurements, and we can determine which works best for you.

Thanks,
