The Halcyon Explorer wings provide  optimal trim for dual tank diving. The
Pioneer wings are designed with different widths and buoyancy
characteristics ( beyond just total lift) to provide optimal trim with
single tanks.  Plus, unless you are using a very heavy wetsuit , you most
likely don't  really want 38 pounds of lift for your single tank
diving---the Halcyon 27 is better for most people.  You can't find a BC
which is ideal for both single and dual tank diving----you end up with a
lousy hybrid, like in bicycles, where you have mountain bikes and road
bikes, and then they created the hybrid which stinks on the road, and stinks
off road.  In diving the distinction is even bigger.

Dan Volker
