Rainier - I dig the video, but that tank attitude is wacked! With double sidemount would it be double monkey or ape diving???

All very good thoughts. Here is hopefully a complete reply. I don't use my BC at all for buoyancy below the surface. I get my weight right and my drysuit provides what little lift I need - typically only the amount needed for squeeze, and I take a fair amount of squeeze as normal. My plans are to dive single AL80 (with pony) sidemounted or double AL80s as sidemounts. I do carry an SMB that actually has the same lift as my current BC. Catastrophic drysuit fail - same as catastrophic BC fail - swim up, use SMB, lose weight at surface and deal with it.
Jax, I will be diving Lake P in April and plan on testing this out; I'll be in Lake M this weekend with my boring old BC and backmount!
Rainer---out of curiosity, what features didn't you like about both the DSS scooter wing or the UTD wing?
i would wait for Tobin at DSS to complete the wing he is building for Steve
