The STA will allow about 1.5 lbs more
non-ditchable weight in the right place
compared to the new wing with doesn't need an
STA. Additionally, you can have additional
weight added to the STA after the fact if you
need even more non-ditchable weight due to
diving a drysuit or being a woman that has
other buoyancy issues.

Personally, I prefer the STA on a single setup.

But if you want the tank right up against your
back, even closer than a plastic backpack, then
go with the new one... the tank is only about a
half inch from your back with basically only the
backplate being between you and the wing.
