Hey guys,
Just making the switch to a BP/W - I'm diving a Seaquest Balance at the moment - on my last dive I used 22lbs and that felt good with an LP77 (8lbs negative full, 2lb negative empty) - factor in whatever other gear I'm carrying (figure reel, regs, etc another -2) - Should I be diving a 30lb, 35lb, or 40lb singles wing? I fully expect to be purchasing an HP100 or 120 in the near future (that 77 wasn't mine), but that shouldn't make too big a difference in lift requirement... I'm leaning towards the 40 as I really want a DSS LCD and not a Torus (the 35) - am I being ridiculous and getting too big a wing? Is the Torus just about the same as the LCD (i.e. Donut vs. standard?)
