I’ll have a handful of medium plates available very soon.
If medium fits 5'10", I would be a very happy camper!

Each size is wider or narrower proportionate to it’s height. Also the small has 9.5” center holes because there wasn’t room for 11” holes. All the wings I recommend have a series of holes on 1.5” centers at each end so lining 9.5” center holes up is no problem.Other than length is there any difference in the plate sizes?
Well, I ordered yesterday, with Economy shipping, and my order came today. And the above strap is the winner. I am now ecstatic at how this rig has turned out.

I will consider it once the stack of stainless mediums I have on the bench goes away.Any chance you're doing any aluminium ones again?
I have been coveting the Freedom plate for years now but have been reluctant to pull the trigger on one as I'm not sure how it will work for the diving I do. I dive dry in cold water almost exclusively. This time of year I'm diving with a 6lb plate, 5lb Hammerhead weighted STA and two three pound weights zip tied to the plate. All this and 16lbs on a weight belt. So this is 33lbs of ballast not including the HP100 and regs. In a few months when the water warms I'll swap the two 3lb weights for two 2 pounders and swap out the weighted STA for a light 1/2lb STA. So I was wondering if there are any divers that need a bunch of ballast out there using a Freedom plate and how they are distributing all the weight. I don't want to add more to the weight belt, 16lb is plenty enough.
