Hello Dive Rite,

I went through your solution center on determining the right wing for double HP100’s. It said the Rec Exp wing. Would the Rec Exp wing be sufficient for double HP100’s and 2 AL40 stages? Or 1 AL40, and 1 AL80?

Thanks
 
Hi,

Tell me more...do you dive wet or dry? Thick wetsuit, etc.? My immediate reply would by "yes". I have dived more weight with a 45lb wing, but I was also in a drysuit and thick undergarments. I like the idea of the Rec EXP for your set up because I think it will be a nice, streamlined wing for your HP100's.

If you're diving 5mm wetsuit or drysuit, then a def. yes. If you're diving a 3mm suit and don't have much bodyfat, then you might want to give it a try before you dive, but most likely you'll still be just fine.

Hey Kathleen,

I dive in the PNW in cold water. Drysuit and as much loft as I can cram in it. I am a small skinny guy. I currently have steel 72’s, and want to upgrade to the HP100’s. I was just wondering if I should keep the EXP wing I have.

Thanks
