I ended up purchasing a DSS Medium SS BP with a Torus 17 wing and a HOG harness. Tobin was very helpful.
I got the BP/W 2 weeks ago and went in the pool with it for an hour practicing getting the kit on and off underwater and on the surface.
In the pool I needed 4 pounds of lead with the AL80 tank with 400 PSI of air. The 3 MM wetsuit would not sink with 6 pounds of lead but did with 8 pounds of lead.
I dove the rig 2 times so far at a local dive site (Blue Heron Bridge salt water) and I love it. I like it better than the black diamond BC that I have been using for years. I like the HOG harness and I am glad I listened to what people were saying.
In salt water I need 8 pounds of lead.
Thanks for everyone feedback on this.
