Hi,
I dive 2x12's with a DiveRite Recwing and I'm quite happy with it.
Not DIR as it comes, but can be modified to meet required spec if required. e.g. I've removed the bungee (as I never use it with singles.) But you'd also need to shorten the inflator hose and replace the pull dump with a plain elbow.

I've not seen the Apex WTX wings in the flesh yet but I would think they probably over do it on the lift a bit. I'd have thought 60 & 80lbs is way too much for twin steel tanks even with stages. Unless you 've got twin 20's!!
Even the 51lbs of lift from the recwing is more than I've ever needed!
It's well made gives good trim in the water and is good VFM in my opinion.

I am wondering myself about the WTX3 single wing though?- seems excellent for occasional use, holidays & cheap (if not very DIR) (not that that really matters to me at present.! )

Cheers,
Mark.
