Info Two aluminum Freedom Plates available

[Eric Sedletzky]

There are two standard 15" aluminum Freedom Plates available at Seal's Watersports in Santa Rosa, CA
Call Zeke: (707) 542-3100
Call them they open at 10:00 PST.

These are the latest greatest with carry handles!
No keepers needed on the sides, the webbing threads like the top and self locks so no dissimilar metal problems.
These have epoxied on tank brackets on the back for the perfect angle, just thread the cam bands through the plate and wing and everything cinches up when the cam bands are tightened.
Designed to fit DGX/Oxycheq and similar wings.

I was an able to secure one of these plates and I have a couple of questions.
1. Which model DGX wing or Oxycheq wing? I have been looking but unable to jsut determine which one will work.
2. The bottom corners have three slots, I am trying to figure out the best way to web those so any insight would be helpful.

Thanks

Either one, the slot configurations are the same on both wings and the plate was designed for both.
The waist strap threads up the exact same as the top slots. Run the webbing in through inside if the outermost slot, then run the strap out the center slot, then back in through the innermost slot, then wrap the webbing around the back of the plate and back out the outermost slot. It will self lock and you don't need any keepers.

Which model DGX wing or Oxycheq wing

DGX comes in black only. If you want color, you'll have to pay more for the Oxycheq...

Thanks for the image. That makes a lot of sense and it really does make a nice way of keeping it without a keeper. I had tried to use a keeper when I put it together earlier today and the slot was just too big and would slip through. I knew that there had to be a better way.

Now since I'm a fluffy person and was wanting to use this for travel it is just now adding some weight to sink my FA.
