I use the OMS 121's, backplate and Wings. The 121 twins are heavy and a real handful. On the surface, heavy - even initially in the water you have to compensate for the heaviness. You do get use to them after a while. It is nice though having all that gas. ****************************************************************** David Norton OW: PADI Divemaster 96197 Tech: IANTD Adv.
