I'm looking to get a frog midnight for my first venture into twins. Would I be able to get this to take a single for those easy bimbles without getting the STA?

The frog kit does look good i must admit. But surely the original design belongs to Halcyon?

if i was going for frog or halcyon i would go for the halcyon as they have spent the money on R & D. Having said that the frog wings do look nice. ill have to try both out.

Well, it's your money, but the Frog wings look very nice (when I have had the opportunity to fondle others' kit) and is considerably cheaper. I'm also very happy with my Dive Rite kit.

I have a halcyon......wish I'd got a frog. nothing wrong with the halcyon as such but so far I've replaced the power inflator and I need to replace the dump valve but can't find a suitable spare because it's the old style.

If there was a breach in design/patent or intellectual property rights then Halcyon would be sueing. The scrap with Salvo although different is a case in point. They're not which tells me that there is nothing Halcyon can do.....and when you look at the price difference you just know that Halcyon have been taking the pi$$ for a long time!

I've got a Halcyon BP and harness, and have just bought a DiveRite twin rec wing which bolts on beautifully. Still bu66ering around with the harness though trying to reach the valves.
