I use the stupidly expensive VBS wing. It does work very nicely indeed but is slightly shorter than my last wing. I dropped it down a hole and always sit quite high now. High enough for force 4 comfort.

Point to note;
It works fantastic as a source of bouyancy at the surface and streamlines superbly underwater. The zip up compartments make it very versatile but.... Ina wetsuit it is a pain in the ass because the aircell causes my trim to be head up. A 4lb weight on the top edge of the frame more or less makes it OK, but I dont need lead abroad. Bugger.
