I am 6'2"
250 pounds.
7 mil suit
i have aluminum 80s and 72s

I was looking at your large ss backplate, not sure on what wing to get though

Thanks

I would agree on the large plate, and SS is a benefit as you will need the ballast.

I'd prefer to know the buoyancy of your 7mm, but if I have to estimate it, 20-22 lbs positive is probably pretty close.

With a full al 80 your rig will be about - 11 lbs and with a full 72 maybe -13.

That means your wetsuit buoyancy dictates the required wing size. I'd suggest a Torus 26.

Recap:

Large SS Plate
Torus 26 Wing
Hogarthian Harness
(cambands and wedge blocks included)

Let me know if you have other questions.
