    Anyone using an integrated weight system with a BP & wing?

    I've been using integrated QB weigh pockets with my Dive Rite backplate and harness for more than 5 years and I really liked; I bought the 32 Lbs, and don't feel that are very bulky. I lost one when I got tangled in the line waiting my turn to descend, but was a really fast current that day...
