I recently bought an Apeks WTX harness system with a SS back plate and an STA (it is on order, SS). The package included two integrated weight pockets that mount on the belt, and a 40LB wing ($585 inc. tax).
Here is the issue I am coming up with. I have thus far used a standard weight belt to keep me down with 28 Lbs of lead (I wear a 7mm wetsuit, full hood, AL80). Each Pocket can hold 10Lbs of lead, plus the back plate is 3-ish lbs and the STA is about 1 . That leaves about 4Lbs of weight unaccounted for. Is there an easy way to tack 4lbs onto the system somewhere so that I don't have to wear another weight belt?
