Hi all,
I have only been diving for a couple of years and only been watching this forum for a short time...but from what I have been reading I know that I want to give the bp and wings combination a try. I have been looking around my area, and a local "tech type" dive shop deals with diverite stuff.
I know that they have a new venture wing, but don't know anyting about it. In fact, most of the post's on this board praise halycon or oxycheq wings (oms doesn't seem to be viewed well either). I am not interested in the transpac or padded harnests, I want to try the wings (no more than 30 lb lift ) on a ss backplate.
I prefer to dive in warm tropical waters, but only get to do that 3-4 times per year. The rest of my diving is in cold lakes and quarries (which I have been neglecting recently). I really would like an honest opinion...are diverite wings really that bad? Are the halcyon and oxycheq wings really that much better? It would be nice to get the gear locally, but your opinions will be valued. If you are against diverite wings, give examples.
Thanks,
stephen
