A Little help with wing selection

[Old_School]

I am 5'9" 192 lbs built like a fire hydrant. I have been diving a Jacket BC but I am planning to switch to a Transpac. I usually dive in colder water in a 7 mil with an Al 80 single tank with 12lbs. I need advice on a wing for diving the Al80 with the Transpac and the 7mil wetsuit. Any suggestions on configuration would be appreciated.

The Travel wing is plenty for most single tank divers. I chose the Venture wings for the extra 15-lbs of lift for just in case I have to float somebody.

Thanks to all for your help in my decision on a wing.

June 6-7th Dive Rite Tech Tour will be at Gilboa, you can try out their different wings. I'm going to try to make it again this year.

Hi there,

Thanks for posting. We agree with our fellow divers who have already posted. A Travel 360 (or Travel EXP) will be great for your configuration.

Best,
