Perhaps, but the alternative would be dealing with a wing larger than necessary for most of his dives, which he said would be in warm water.Using a weight belt over a harness can be difficult for a novice diver.
He's not making them anymore. I messaged him and that's what he told me.Freedom Plate Divers Roll Call: show us your rig!
Lots of other threads, use the search function to find others, but this is a good start.
I also went with a Subgravity. The options they offer and the quality is great. ONLY thing I have against them is the wing to plate bolt is 8mm metric. NO one has speed nuts in 8mm.I recommend you look at Sub Gravity system.They have a choice of 1 aluminum or 3 stainless steel backplates, 4 wing lifts, and 2 harness types. They 3 weight pockets styles, and backplate trim weights.

We built the Paragon single tank package to offer a modular and customizable BCD to best suit single tank diving needs. At the heart of the Paragon Single Tank Package is the...sub-gravity.com
I use their 3mm aluminum backplate, 26 lb wing and adjustable harness for down south diving.
Looks like a standard 1” hose, if so putting a common K inflator on shouldn’t be a problem. It looks to be a nice rig.Something that struck me about that Subgravity wing is the non-standard inflator. That's the most likely thing on the wing to fail and the ability to use a cheap generic replacement could come in handy. It has for me.
Speaking for myself only.SS plate for both.
Did it once and never again because I was sent back to have the plate checked in. Luckily I always give myself plenty of time to go through the security.I've traveled with my steel plate, goes in carry on with regs, mask computer.
And for some reason my carry on is always searched.
