Is the Hammerhead BP shaped more like the OMS, DR, Halcyon, or others?

Thanks.

Yes, it's similar.

Since the Pioneer 27# doesn't have a protective shell, which wings have a protective outer shell AND a built-in STA?

Thanks!

All of our Single wings are "double bladder" construction, and all include the built in "Wobble Stopper"

Tobin,

I assume "Wobble Stopper" is to keep the air from "shifting" sides?

This morning, UPS delivered my DSS Single Tank rig. I haven't had it in the water yet, but did assemble everything on my tank to check it out. The construction quality is unreal on this thing. The plate is finished very well, the wing looks almost bombproof, and all the rigging is very nice. There is a 1" strap the spans the opening in the wing (where the plate attaches). On this strap there is a plastic piece that acts as a wedge to keep the tank from moving around. I am assuming this is the "wobble stopper". When I installed everything to my tank, I shook it, shoved it, moved it all around, just to see how securely the tank was fastened, and all I can say is that it ain't going anywhere. No movement whatsoever. Keep in mind, this was dry, so when it gets wet there might be something going on, but I don't think so. The whole design looks very well thought out and the quality of everything is superb. I'm glad I ordered the DSS stuff and can't wait to get it in the water!

No, the wobble stopper is a small elastomeric cradle that ends up between the tank and the plate. It prevents tank Rock.

No, it's the built-in STA.
