Anyone Tried The "Custom Divers VBS Wing System"

Lancer4545 · 4th March 2010, 09:54

I have been looking at the Custom Divers VBS WIng System and think it looks like it'll work well on my rebreather.

Has anyone tried one and can give me any advise on it??

Regards,

Lance

I run one on my HH CCR and love it. They are relatively short so they don't fold beneath the unit. The adjustable buoyancy is also a boon for being able to use the wing for different diving. Most of the buoyancy is held in the base of the wing and that works wonders for trim.

I took a look at it and it looks interesting. One thing I noticed is that it looks like the dump valve is on the right side of the unit, rather than the left where it is typically located. Is that just a dual bladder system that has a dump on each side or is that the single bladder model as well?

I used one for quite a while on my Inspiration and was very happy with it.

It's a 31/47 lbs version with a single bladder.

If your interested in one, send me a PM and we might be able to work something out.
