Hi Everyone,
I would like to know if the Pterodactyl backplate by Critical Aspect is acceptable for Hog diving. I was asked this by a student of mine, and I did not know the answer, so I'm presenting it here. The Pterodactyl appears to meet your criteria of SS backplate with a single webbing harness with no failure points. Yes, the harness is adjustable with this system, but with the D rings on the waist, it will not come off even if unbuckled. If this is a true concern, one can always use two buckles.
Thank you in advance for your input.
