Hog came out with this wing

[CAPTAIN SINBAD]

You use a single tank on a doubles wing with 60 lbs lead?

Single 133 ,drysuit, I am diving rivers where current is a major concern . I have to plant myself to the bottom on a lot of dives... If you start getting blown backwards it could be very dangerous of course you have to be able to get back up hence why I opted for the 60 Lb wing.. BTW a mild current the day of this dive...

I've used a Hog 32 for several years and like it very much. A local instructor who also has a Hog 32 commented on how new mine looked. It has been rugged and great to use. I even bought a second one as a backup but have not had to unwrap it yet.

I’ve got a 32lb HOG wing as well. No issues with the wing or inflator.

Aren't bungees out of fashion?

They have been for years, yet a certain segment of the market wants them still. OMS (now owned by DUI) still makes one as well

WOW, loved your video! Looks like some great finds. Would love to do some treasure diving with you guys if I'm ever Stateside again. Looks like a real hoot!

More videos please.

Yes, currently HOG offers a 23 no bungee option, 32 with optional bungee (up to you) and now 60 also with bungee optional. See edge-gear.com website for more info and resellers...

I have the TBCS with the 32# wing with bungee. I've not encountered any issues thus far (maybe 50 dives) with this BC. I have not noticed any discernible difference regarding the oral inflator vs my old Zeagle Ranger. I did purchase the replacement dump valve and cable for my inflator hose. Personal preference, I simply like the functionality better.

[...] but the inflator hose was not as powerful as others and would take its time to inflate.

Incidentally: IIRC, one of the EU standards -- I think it's in EN1809 -- requires that the fill rate be X amount less than the exhaust rate. When that rolled out, inflators got less powerful across the industry.
