Reet then. I have a little spare cash.

I don't have enough to go the whole din regs and twinset route, but that's probably where I will end up in a year or so.

In the meantime, I want to have a wing that I can comfortably use with my 15lts tank, and then migrate to a twinset at a later date.

I am looking at the following setup, and would appreciate any thoughts.

Dive Rite Rec Wing Single Bladder
S/S Backplate
Dive Rite Deluxe Harness and Crotch Strap
Single Tank Adapter and S/S Cam Bands

the plan is to work with this kit, and then get a twinset and din regs at a later date

What do we think?

Cheers

Garf

<font color='#0000FF'>Hi Garf,

I was thinking along the same lines as you, but came into a little cash so changed my entire rig.

At present I currently have a DIY one piece harness (£15), combro back plate (£40) Halcyon 40lbs wing (£200) and the twin 10's which cost a very cheap £180 from a fellow YDer's mate. I will however be selling my BC to claw back some of the doe.

Diving is a pricey game and I wish I knew then what I know now, as I'd have saved sooooo much cash

HTH
