gr8white:Couldn't agree less. A BP wing is more streamlined than any jacket or back inflate. No one would put a 90lb lift on a single. Halcyon Pioneer is a 27# lift bladder with low low profile but plenty of lift. You don't need to go Halcyon but stay with a 30# or less. The nice thing with Halcyon is that you can use the same plate to add a larger bladder if you want to go double tanks.
Ok, so maybe the 90lb bladder was pushing it. The point is that you still have to configure a BP system for the type of diving you do and not all BP systems are well suited to all divers or for single tank diving. I would still try a both a BP and decent back inflation BC before buying anything.
