Jim, steel back tanks, steel stages, and a wet suit - there you have some serious weight. If you then have the wings bungeed in, pumping gas into them only blows the relief valve. Most of thes big time "tekkies", who are nothing but strokes you would not go in a pool with, use crap like this since they think it is more "technical", when in fact it is a sign of ignorant stupidity. These guys look to me about the same as the ones who stand around the freeway exits with the "homeless, hungry , broke, please help, I am too freaking stupid to know any better than to look like this", "need money to buy bondage wings", "will work to be a stroke", "need five buck to get trimix certified".
