There IS NO CORRECT configuration for bungeed wings. There is NO CORRECT way for defective designs to be used. Further, some gear makers will try to sell a dual bladder dual hose BC, and suggest this is the proper configuration to use when diving double steels with steel stages and wetsuit. The only "proper" configuration here is NOT to match heavy steels with wetsuit. To sell a blatantly stupid configuration/solution is close to criminal. Yet you would endorse this. Halcyon makes a very big deal about what is proper configuration AND proper use of its systems. And DIR develops this even further.

Configured properly? When I read the archives this same argument has received no hearing at all when others have broached the subject about OMS BC's needing to be configured properly. Why it is that Halcyon incidents in some cases may be justifiable by user configuration problems, but OMS configurations cannot? I do not understand the inconsistency here?
