A BP/W is short for a Backplate/Wing BCD, it is a back-inflate system, the BCD bladder wraps around the side of the tank, and your weight is between your tank and your backplate. From what I have seen and heard, it is much more stable on the surface and at depth than a jacket-style BCD.SHARKBAIT94:HI,

SHARKBAIT94:Hi outlawaggie,
thanks for the reply. But I thought buying off line was a big no no (Larry no offense please this is what we are told in class but I do love your site and price made me a little giddy and envious)
