| Re: Halcyon Explorer CCR-35 Rebeather Wing I am using a Rec Wing with an aluminum back plate. I carry the 6 pound Optima canister weight up high, and I also have about another six pounds hanging up high inside the case from where the top bolt comes in from the back plate. This seems to work really well for me.
Originally, I tried a steel back plate. However, using a lighter back plate and then shifting the weight up high seems to work really well for me. So, I don't need a wing with lots of lift on the bottom. Besides, the Rec Wing has a similar (though not exactly the same) shape, having a flared bottom to support the set up.
I don't know if 35 pounds of lift would be enough. The Rec Wing gives about 50, and that seems just right. |
