Hi guys. Im new to diving (Finished my Open Water Cert this year) and I am now looking to buy my own equipement. I have read alot in the last few months and have decided on a BP/W from DSS. I will give you the information that I know about my current setup, and if I have missed anything, please let me know.
1.)I dive cold water only.
2.)I use a Northern Divers Neo Dry Suit.
3.)I currently use a rented SeaQuest Latitude XLT BCD and 22LBS of weight.
4.)I dive with AL80 tanks @ 3000PSI
5.)I am 180lbs 5'8"
My questions are as follows.
1.)What size backplate will I need large or medium?
2.)What is the best wing DSS sells for my application and how much lift do I need. (mostly open water for the next few years, not alot of caves and wrecks in my area)?
3.)I have dove up till now with quick release weight pockets, and I am wondering if I should go with weight plates on a BP/W or if I should change to a belt (and why)?
4.)Also, what is the difference between the Hog and the Pro fit harness?
Thanks in advance for your help. I hope my questions are not to "noobish"
Happy Diving!!
