Wanted Want to buy: Travel Wing

[Fonzi4]

I am looking for a wing, backplate (aluminum or soft), and harness suitable for traveling. This would be for single tank recreational use, and I'm looking for a donut style over a horseshoe style. 20 to 30 lbs of lift.

Please let me know if you have anything you're looking to get rid of.

$200

Wing wise hard not to suggest just getting a dgx s1. It's great wing especially so at 199 also very compact.

OxyCheq sells a travel backplate. Weighs 9 Oz.

OxyCheq - OxyCheq Ultra Lite Travel Plate - Black

I have 2 brand new systems ( sorry some of the pictures are not pretty ). Both are $499.99 CAN ( roughly 385 US)
Saekodive Glide Backplate and Wing Systems
or
Dive Rite XT Harness with Voyager EXP wing 16

One is a Saekodive and one is a Diverite. The Diverite does not come with weight pouches as the first picture shows. Plus the corrugated hose is all discolored. Both are brand new.

Perhaps you are looking for something cheaper but I thought I would throw this out there.

The Deep6 20lb wing and backplate combo is really good value for money if you’re buying new

What about travel SS backplates? In decreasing order of price, there's Eric S's Thin SS Freedom Plate, the Oxycheq Travel S/S Backplate and the Diverite XT Lite. Is a question of you get what you pay for, or e.g. is there Diverite "better" than the Oxycheq?

EDIT: the Golem Gear Stream backplate looks like another possibility in this category. Visually it looks very similar to the oxycheq one, priced a bit cheaper.

Older DiveRite Transpacs work well also, and tend to cost less. I don't know about you, but I prefer not to have all my 'shinys' on display when travelling. Nobody really notices an older BCD

A plate is a plate, provided you buy from a decent manufacturer. I’ve got a HOG and the Dive Rite one that you mentioned.

I managed to get an Aluminum Freedom Plate, so now I'm just waiting for VDH to ship my wing.
