Tobin,
If my most buoyant suit is 30 lbs. and I am diving doubles why would I need a 94 lb. wing?
Bill
You don't. The largest doubles wing we offer is 57 lbs and most don't need thant much capacity.
We sell more 49 lbs wing than any other size.
Why?
Most exposure suits are less than 30 lbs buoyant and few divers carry more than 16 lbs of back gas.
Keep in mind that the math is the same for singles vs doubles, but the assumptions are a little different.
The quick and dirty method is suit buoyancy + weight of back gas + 3 lbs = minimum wing capacity for doubles.
