Subject: singles w/backplate and adapter?

From: Richard Lister <ric@gi*.ge*.ed*>


Hi folks, I'm looking at rigging a single tank on a Halcyon or Dive-Rite
backplate with a single tank adapter. However, I've heard from a few
sources that this setup causes the tank to sit too far from the diver's
back.

Does anyone have any opinions/experience on this? I find using the
same setup for singles or doubles appealing, but would I be better
off just rigging a DIR harness on an old-school plastic single backpack?

Cheers
Ric
