Building my own backplate bcd. I've narrowed my choices down to a Dive Rite Transplate or a Hollis Elite 2 for the harness, a Hollis or OMS SS backplate with matching pad, a DSS or Oxycheq wing, and Dive Rite tank straps. No dive shop in my area has any of these components in stock for me to look at. I only dive in warm water anymore and wanted something more travel friendly and less drag when diving in a current then my Zeagle Ranger LTD. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks Darren

If you're going to get a DSS wing, you really should get a DSS plate. Not only will you save money on a full package, but the DSS wing simply "pops" off the DSS plate for storage and travel. Check out the video on the DSS website.

I suggest the DSS Kydex backplate. Ideal for travelling
