Which weight pocket for wing/bp?

[edupress]

Hello

Could you please advise on which weight pocket to buy for my wing/bp setup?
I got tired of weight belt rubbing on my plate, it's all scratched now at the bottom.
I saw halcyon acb pockets, dive rite ones, even rather exotic oxycheq - do you have any experience with them? Thanks!

How much weight do you need to use? I have used Dive Rite's 16lbs version but really prefer XSScuba's simple 5lbs pockets.

I would use 5.5 kg. Basically, I was asking which design is better or quality for that matter.

I use XSScuba's 5lbs pockets for tropical diving, simple, cheap and does not take up much room on the belt.

For cold water diving when I need 12lbs I use OMS "no sag" which I am also very happy with. They're sort of like a built in harness system.

Take care,
John

I use the ACB's. Nice and steamlined on the harness. Nice job of stowing your long hose too. For warm water, i use XS Scuba weight pouches...

I have a small waist and the acb pockets are too big to fit on my harness. I now use the XS scuba 5 lb pockets, they work fine even with smaller weights.

XSScubas for me, nice, small and cheap.

Am looking to purchase the ACB system. I too have a small waist. How long is each pocket?

Zeagle has a tops set of weight pouches, best I have seen and used.
