Preferred choices for backplate and wings?

Sounds like amazing equipment. I am gonna be going with the DR Classic XT wing as I dive 15L twins and I will need the 27kg of lift. Not the preferred cylinder size of many divers but it has worked out really well for me, using other people's BC's or renting of course. The Rec wing might not have enough lift for handle that load. Not to mention stage cylinders and all the other gear on a dive. Unless I am mistaken? As for diving singles, I could always buy the Voyager at another point

I have steel HP80 doubles. Roughly equivalent to 10L for the rest of the world. Original owner used this wing with HP100/12L steel doubles. It has 45 lbs/20.4 kg of lift. I think you’re going to need a larger wing for your doubles than the Rec wing.

Definitely the Classic XT then. Thank you very much for your advice and time. I think I will be happy with my choice.

My Apeks wing has 45lb of lift and I was diving 104s this weekend with two stages. I was also in a drysuit.
