BPW divers who subscribe to the DIR (Doing It Right) approach to streamlined and minimalistic equipment configurations will appreciate SCUBAPRO’s new S-Tek Pure back plate/wing system. This simple yet rugged system consists of a continuous-web harness teamed with a revolutionary designed 3D formed stainless steel back plate and a donut wing. Stainless steel hardware includes a waist buckle, two pre-bent D-rings on the shoulders, one D-ring on the waist, and two D-rings on the crotch strap. The stainless steel backplate comes with Evo-Angle webbing slots for a more natural webbing routing that increases comfort and reduces webbing abrasion. The backplate also provides trim weight system mounting holes, an argon tank mounting point for drysuit divers, 2 x S-Tek Ergo Nuts, plus a convenient built-in carry handle. The system is available with a 30lbs/13kg, 40lbs/18kg or 60lbs/27kg lift donut wing, with the 30lbs/13kg and 40lbs/18kg wings being suitable for single tank diving and the 40lbs/18kg and 60lbs/27kg wings for twin tank diving. The 30lbs/13kg system includes a single tank adapter. The S-Tek Pure is a rugged and reliable tech diving system designed for those extended trips into the depths. Continuous webbing harness provides a custom, individualised fit. Can be configured as a fixed-shoulder length harness for ultimate simplicity or in Extender mode that allows the shoulder straps to extend for easier doffing & donning. Stainless steel waist buckle allows for a full range of adjustment. Two pre-bent D-rings on the shoulders, one D-ring on the waist, and two D-rings on the crotch strap are provided for clipping on extra gear. Branded silicone epaulet on the left shoulder and branded silicone guide bands keep inflator hose and straps in place. Stainless steel back plate offers Evo-Angle webbing slots plus mounting points for trim weights, an argon tank for drysuit divers, plus a convenient built-in carry handle. 2 x S-Tek Ergo Nuts – ergonomically designed, easier to tighten and loosen, and flushed mounted to prevent abrasion. Donut wing (30lbs/13kg, 40lbs/18kg or 60lbs/27kg) is constructed of a 1000D Cordura outer shell and 500D Cordura inner bladder. Single tank adapter is included with 30lb/13kg system. Back plate features fully radiused edges and a softened organic shape, along with the back plate’s recessed wingnut socket, rationalised hole count and positioning, and webbing bolt hole alignment, make for a well-thought-out system.
