You want to add an Arabian one-hump camel to your wing? Seems like it would a lot of added weight with no upside.

I use a dromedary as a wing in one of my SM rigs. Venting is a pain in the butt. I'm not a great fan of the oral inflator and I usually just give it some gas and do the rest with breath control - although every time I have used it buoyancy isnt important because i'm in tiny crawling cave anyway.
Unless you are in a wetsuit and crawling through really small and sharp cave that also opens up into someplace you really do need to be neutral I wouldn't bother.

grab a couple of dump valve fittings and fit them
OP
It would get put inside the container of my wing for wetsuit diving with steel tanks as a response to wing failure. Andy Davis and others have done this. XDeep Stealth 2.0 Classic Modifications : Redundant Buoyancy %

i would rather mount a deco bladder or apeks wsx underneath if you don't want to just get the stealth tec 2.0 redundant bladder

This is the same way that the razor is build I recon. Seems to work for that system so I can’t see why you can’t do it for the tec wing.
