Can you? Yes...with an STA.
Should you? It works, but is not optimal. All I've ever used is an Explorer wing with doubles and singles. It works, but a Pioneer would be much better and has been high on my list for years
.
Take care,
Mike

With a wing that sized with a single tank it will be very hard to dump air from the rear dump, unless you are perfectly horizontal with your butt raised a bit. It took me some practise. Also the wing will wrap the tank so you are either going to look like an angel in the water with your wings flapping or you will have the hot dog effect where your wings wrap the tank like a bun on a hot dog.
Yes you can dive a single tank with that wing, but I would suggest getitng the pioneer wing. I love mine.
