      Comments about Dive Rite Dive-Rite Stainless Steel Back-Plate:

      Switching to the backplate and wing style of diving made a huge difference in my diving. Steel plate distributed weight evenly and is perfect for diving in colder water. The whole backplate system makes it feel like it's part of your body, feels very streamlined unlike traditional bc's. Just amazing!

          Great nicely made back plate but does not work with the Transpac. All around a very strong product.

            Comments about Dive Rite Dive-Rite Stainless Steel Back-Plate:

            The Backplate works good witch the other Dive Rite stuff. But the holes dont match with other brands, for example: u cant use a backpad manufactored by OMS, DIRZone or Halcyon.
            Next time i would buy an OMS-Backplate

            Comments about Dive Rite Dive-Rite Stainless Steel Back-Plate:

            I purchased the complete Transplate Setup with SS Backplate, Lumbar Pad, 2" Crotch Strap, a couple of pockets, STA, and Tank Straps. Dive Rite has a well thought out, high quality and well engineered product. It took me a long time of pulling and adjusting the strapping (2-3hr). But once set-up, it is a custom fit that has no comparison. This set-up allowed me to remove weight from my belt, improved my trim in the water, and I have no more annoying movement of my tank whether I am hiking down a cliff or chasing down a fish.

            Service and delivery comments:

            I have been doing business with LeisurePro for over 10 years. I have always had excellent service. This Dive Rite equipment was the best price.

            Comments about Dive Rite Dive-Rite Stainless Steel Back-Plate:

            I actually bought the Halcyon SS backplate and Explorer (30lb wing), but it is very similar to the Dive-rite equipment.

            However, I'm writing this review for the SS Backplate and wing combo. I had a Mares tech BCD that inflated all around and I didn't think it was very streamlined while diving. The backplate is just the opposite.

            I bought the wing and it cuts through the water like nobody's business. I dropped from 12 lbs (standard BCD) to just the SS plate (5 lbs) and it is soooo much better. The plate is actually comfortable. I don't feel anything under the water. It take a few tries to get the harness adusted (if you have the continuous web harness), but once you've got it adjusted its always ready to go.

            I can't say enough about the backplate and wing combo. If you're even thinking about the switch, just go for it and you won't regret it. It's just a better set-up all around.
