Suggestions for Weight Trim Pockets that can be attached directly to Backplates (to fit between BP and Wing in a SINGLE Tank kit)

[BoltSnap]

Just band straps. The wing has this built-in stabilizer thingy...

Are the trim pocket straps going to block the slots where the tank straps are passed through? If both go through the same slots, then the tank bands pass through first and then the trim pocket strap hoping that the slots are wide enough for both?

At any rate, please let me know how it works out for you when you get yours. Based on what you tell me, I am going to have to order these pockets from Dive System. I need them before my trip to Aqaba at the beginning of March for the U/W photo competition.

I can't wait for you to get yours and try them

It looks like it will work out perfectly. To show you, I just threaded a piece of 2" webbing through it, which lines up nicely with the holes in the backplate. The webbing used in the DiveSystem unit is a bit narrower than 2", I think, so there is even more room.

Not all backplates have those slots these need to go to. Mine doesn't...

That is a pretty easy fix with a little elbow grease

You need some tools too, which I also don't have. If your plate doesn't have those extra slots, I would go for a different system. Judging by this thread, there are several options.

I would recommend you go a different direction, but I seem to sense a tool.

As far as adding a slot with tools, I suppose a dremmel would do the trick with aluminum. Stainless steel would likely be a giant pain.

It's easier to make a strap and use trim pockets.
Or just get an 20$ ali express weight plate.

You can cut SS but I would think if you use a SS plate just getting a thicker plate would be easiest.
