What good would an ALU backplate do me? I'd just have to add
more lead to my P-weight. I don't need lighter equipment so I
can use a smaller bladder, I just LIKE floating a little
higher in the water. The 65 doesn't add much drag compared
with the 55 IMO. Most people I know in around here prefer the
65 to the 55, which they feel has to little lift for rough
seas.
