    BP/W Help me with weight pockets

    Price keeps fluctuating at LP, but they are $9.95 now. I just bought these. Nice and compact. I have read that if you only need smaller weights (i.e. 2 or 3#) they will fall out, so need to think of a solution, like wrapping the weights with rubber bands or something that will prevent them...

    Hollis Wing with Oxycheq Small Backplate

    Pretty sure the current batch of Oxycheq short plates has two cam band straps. Might want to check with Patrick to confirm if this is important.

    Plate size for short (5'2") person with long torso?

    I've learned so much from this forum and am about ready to buy my first BP/W, but have a dilema on what size backplate I should get. I'm 5'2" about 120 pounds, and thought a short backplate (13") would be best, based on what I've read here. However after taking my torso measurement (16.5" from...

    Lowest profile single tank wings (with built in STA)?

    Thanks StuartV for your feedback on wing brands and your wing comparison photo. I did see that earlier. Super helpful to this newbie. RhwestfalI, I must've missed the 23# VDH wing option. Agree, that may be the best choice for me. Tanks: 80AL or 63 if I can find them. All of my diving...

    Lowest profile single tank wings (with built in STA)?

    Looking for recommendations/opinions about "narrow" wings which minimize wobble and don't need single tank adapters. I've noticed some wing designs are "narrow" i.e. hugs the tank, whereas others appear to be flatter and wider (i.e. Dive RIte), and looks like they would benefit from a STA. I'm...

    Wanted Small Aluminum Backplate + STA

    Only two brands I know currently selling small aluminum backplates are Halcyon and Oxycheq, but I'm open to other brands who are no longer selling new (DSS, others?). Might be interested your whole setup... harness, wing, depending on what it is and condition.

    OMS BC/W setup. What do I need to buy?

    Looks like neither Halcyon nor Oxycheq small backplates have cutouts for the cam bands, so both would require a STA, even if whatever brand wing one selects does have cam band slots. Hmmmm, there adds another pound of weight! <darn>

    OMS BC/W setup. What do I need to buy?

    Marie13 Thanks for showing the size comparison between Halcyon short and regular backplate. I'm 5'2" so am interested in a short plate....looks like if I go Halcyon short plate I MUST use a STA, but for their regular plate, STA not necessary?

    Anilao: Different critter action and abundance Nov /Dec vs Apr/May?

    I realize water temps in Anilao will be warmer in Apr & May (and more crowded). I've read somewhere that more critters are regularly seen during cooler water temps. I don't want to go in Jan, but is there a big difference between Nov/Dec or Apr/May in what you'll see? Understand it also...

    Dive Rite TravelPac update?

    I've been looking for a replacement BCD and decided to get the TravelPac, but then learned it was being discontinued and a new product will replace it (soon). Can anybody give us a preview of the updated version? Will it be similar or a drastic change? Name? I think the TravelPac fills a...
