Transition from Yellow Box to Backplate

tflaris · 16th February 2007, 21:53

I am in the process of transitioning from the yellow bow to a backplate and harness. Has anyone used the Deep Sea Harness with the quick release? Has one had any experience with the offset D Rings that would be located under the counter lung? Any other suggestions on Harness or wing combinations. Any help is appreciated. I have gone through the library/Gallery. Pics would be great.

checkout DeepSeaSupply Under Counterlung D-Ring

I bought one of these and although I had some issues setting it up with an oxycheq quick release harness, it seems to work great. It would be even better on a standard 50mm webbing harness though.

You can easily get to the d-ring, as it stick right out past the counterlung. Build quality of the part also seems great.

I am big fan of the DSS Profit harness with one simple modification that Tobin will do for you if you ask... Have him make the male part of the quick release webbing out of the stiff harness material. This will end up being the waist strapping. I have found it to be a perfect setup for my rig.

Dive Safe...
