Woo. Big changes before you even get it!
I've seen several backplate conversions but none I like yet, well Gordon Henderson's is nice but he had the factory rework the counterlungs for him so that's cheating. I can't quite see it myself. The backplate was wonderful on the twinset but the weight is placed very differently on the YBOD and it doesn't work for me so I've stuck with the pull-to-tighten tabs. Hammerheads really look magic but get slated for accuracy and the airmiles they clock up being fixed.
The things that seem to be far more pressing are problems related to CO2 and bailout. I'm wondering... are you proposing these changes because you've dived it and you need these or are you just listening to stories?
