Weights on BP or case

IanWood · 21st August 2006, 12:42

Basic question I know...

But does anyone have any cleaver solutions for putting weights on the BP or the case?

I have recently got a Kent Tooling Box and SS Backplate and need about 6kg of lead. I used to have the standard harness and integrated weights and found the weights more comfortable there.

I find wearing a weight belt plays hell with my back and would like a quick and easy solution of putting weights somewhere on the unit at the last minute - so as to making moving the thing about easier..

Thanks

I currently have 6mm (5kg) BP and 2kg weight on the top pouch of my YBOD. This is enough for me with trilaminate DS and undergarment.

Another option would be using a D-wight on the regular BP.
