I'm not going to write another long post about how great this set-up is, because enough people have probably already done that.

However, I did want to mention that with the BP/Wing I have found the last BC I'll likely ever own. Having now dived with it today, I can say that it exceeded all my expectations. I've always had pretty good buoyancy control and trim, but this takes you to a whole new level.

Oh yeah, guess it's time to go find that old thread about
zeagle---->Ebay-------->BP/Wing.
 
Well it sounds like I'm not the only one getting geared up for the spring. I just changed out my 36# wing for a 27# and a STA.

I have been working out this winter and my shoulders are larger than they were last fall. I am having some trouble getting into the chest straps and I either have to adjust them out or streach more. Here's the big question. What is the proper adjustment (tightness) for the chest straps. There has to be some optimum length but I haven't figured it out yet. :doctor:

Thanks, that was a great link. After looking at the pictures I remembered seeing the two finger spacing when I set the rig up a year or so ago. Looks like I need to let the straps out a little and do more stretching. It's tough getting old but it beats the alternatives.:D
