So randy99k5: After the dive you undo your plate --> take wing off --> put plate back on? Everytime?I always move my doubles around by the wearing the bare backplate with no wing attached.
I have a table in my basement I can set the tanks on, take the backplate off my shoulders, turn around and lower by hand.
I do the same at a dive shop, but I just look for a stool or stairs to set them on.
Only at the dive site do I put the wing on the backplate.

Thank you
Meredith once mentioned that her complete rig (LP95s iirc) weights more than she does.I saw a young lady at Little River last month sporting what looked like double 120s. Girl had to be under 5' and 120# at the absolute tops! You could barely see her from behind, but she carried those tanks up and down the stairs like a champ! I must admit, I take a break half way up the stairs, but this girl made me feel like I should cut a corner off my man-card..
