TransPacII - Venture or Travel Wing?

[djanni]

Any comments on these two wings that might help me choose?

Same lift, the Travel wing is no longer in an elastic cover. It more like the cover on the Venture wing.

I'm not interested in anything larger. Single tank warm water diver.

If I were going with DR I would use the Venture....but even though I like DR products IMHO as a owner of both DR and DSS,the DSS wings are far superior in design and fit and function...the 26lb Torus is a great wing low profile/low drag and tough...in contrast the travel is wider and square....

Does the DSS wing fit the TPII harness?

I bought the Travel Wing on the advice of a TPII friend of mine.... Thanks anyway.

Don, my wife dives with the TPII and the travel wing. She loves her configuration. We did try the Venture wing, but she found it to not be any different in the water, and her BC is easier to handle (setting up and packing, that is) with the smaller wing.

I have the Travel Wing/TP2 , bought in 1999 , still being used after 1000 dives in the Philippines. Ditched the TP2 in 2005 and attached the wing on a backplate Hogarthian style.

Great wing in my opinion, for either work or play. Don't be deceived by its simple looks.
