Meg Double bladder wing options - Again???

Sorry if this has been raised before but couldn`t find viable option in the library.
What options are out there for a donut or similar unit with a double bladder for use with wet suit at depth, i.e. no drysuit alternate. Currently trying a Golem 35 ring (main) with a Diverite Venture wing as backup ( reversed on top) - no seperate first stage hose connection as feed off stage hose.
Any polite suggestions?????
Thx

Sorry, I usually use a drysuit so I have never found a need for dual wings. Even in a wetsuit I am having a hard time believing it is nessasary.

Indeed, wet or dry, shallow or deep, I always carry a D-SMB. Other than that, I believe Andy at Rebreatherlab is developing a CCR wing that has an optional second bladder.

Re: Meg Double bladder wing options - Again???

Just use a dual bladder Dive-Rite Rec wing, is not donut shaped but is a good wing.

I use the single bladder version on my Meg.

Cheers,

Dave Cooper.

I'm a second for a SMB. Halcyon (ohh I said a dirty word) makes the Evolve and it fits real nice on my Meg.
