I wouldn't mind if a BCD could support my cylinders.

I never had an issue with discomfort or trim with a BCD and I like all the pockets. In the UK I use a dry suit for buoyyancy anyway. Personally I don't find using a wing so fantastic that I wouldn't switch back.

When my joints and muscles become too crumbly and weak to support twin 12s+ then I will happily go back (that'll be next week ).

As it happens I have a backup Mares BCD style wing which I still miss using (max lift twin 10s) and is now holiday kit.
