Weight pouches for Tank Straps?

[graysclassics]

Right you orrrible lot.. where can I get some suitable weight pouches? I detest using a weight belt.

I have a wing style integrated BCD (Cratos) which can use singles or twins, currently I am stickin to a single 12 till I am more experienced but am fed up lying face down on the surface.. the wife dont complain but thats another story.

On my last two dives in the red sea my guide told me to put some weights on my tank straps, removing weight from trim & integrated pockets; a couple of Kilos on top and bottom straps on opposite sides to remain balanced.

Works quite well but it is a pain unthreading the webbing to fit standard lead weights to the webbing. Some zipped pockets or whatever to slip onto tank webbing would be better as long as they are big enough to take around 3K each and will thread on a wide tank straps.

I know some wing users have a backplate with weights fixed to the bottom maybee I could use a similar method for my bcd? Any help/suggestions would be very helpful.
