Like so much, it depends. With shorter HP tanks like 117s, i like the OMS 45# wing, because it has more of the bladder volume up high. That helps with my long torso, heavy legs six foot frame. When diving LP85s I like the DGX 55# doubles wing. I haven’t had the opportunity to try a lot of other wings, but based on their shape could guess on which ones I would like for which tank setup.
 
Both my wings are Halcyon, the 60 lb (for my 130s) and 40 lb wing (for 85’s or AL80’s when I am in Mexico). Never had an issue with either wing.
 
I have the DSS Torus 49 wing. I really like it, I originally had a different doubles wing and it never felt right. Switched to the DSS and have been very happy.
 
Halcyon Evolve 40 for Alum doubles, Evolve 60 for my 104's....then my 30 for my singles, along with my daughter's 30 for her rig.

Yes, I have lots of wings....
 
Apeks WTX4 (horseshoe) for double 95s, Apeks WTX3 (doughnut) for single cylinder recreational. Unfortunately both are now only produced for the military/professional market.
