Help deciding between brands backplate/wing

[rhwestfall]

I'm leg heavy, and just don't like the "inverted pear" shape of the deep6 wing. As said by others upthread, the short and wide HOG also isn't for me. I truly like best the DGX/VDH/OxyCheq narrow profile wing.

I have all three. They are all okay/good, but some are just better (for me)...

YMMV

I have a few wings now. I think I prefer the narrow slightly longer wing shape. Not sure I can actually tell the difference underwater, but it just seems to be more streamlined, plus I had one issue with HOG gear and I was not overly impressed with their response. For travel I would select aluminum over a heavier steel.

I love the profile of the DGX 30# wing. Very streamlined.

Thanks to everyone for their feedback.

I finally ordered the DGX package with aluminum plate and trim pockets. Will give my personal review as soon as it gets to me.

Happy diving!!!
