For Drysuit diving, I prefer to use a backplate and harness with a set of wings. Why does this work great?
1. With the increased bulk of a drysuit, it is nice to rid yourself of the bulk around the sides and up front of a conventional BCD.
2. The harness is one long piece of webbing and it is customizable to the size of the individual diver. All you have to do is undo the harness and build it back again with the right lengths for each section of straps. Also, place your D-rings in a good place for your body type and ease of use. Once you have done all of this, just take a pair of sharp scissors and trim off the extra belt and seal it with a flame from a candle.
