I was looking at a ScubaPro Glide Pro and saw that it could be adapted for doubles. I couldn't find any documentation in the manual or on Google, other than that it was possible. It seemed to have 11" spaced holes in the backpack, so I'm wondering if I could just bolt my twinset straight on or if I needed a fancy adapter. Does anyone know?

This question is mostly academic: my doubles are currently on a backplate and aren't used in conjunction with split fins, spare air or an air2. I'm just curious.
 
The bands should have a bridge to fit against the curve of the bac pac and uses a separate bolt than the clamping one.
The spacing for years and years and years for SP was 8 1/4".
I know less about new vest things.
Depending on your bridge, the tanks may sit closer to your back than a single but still an inch or two further than with a bp/w.
Today have lots of fun with old bac pacs and doubles with bolts through and no falling off and plenty bouyancy with sharkskin beaver old wings vests and Fenzy's.
