I'm new to this board and am looking for advice as to which size Halcyon wings (40# or 55#) to buy for use cave diving, primarily with double aluminum 80's and an occasional AL 80 stage bottle. (although I do occasionally use double steel 94s) I'm leaning toward the 40, but am doubtful as to whether it has enough lift to handle the stage bottle, let alone the steel 94s. I've got a 10 year old Rite Classic wing I'm using right now (60# of lift) which works fine with the heavier steel doubles, but drives me crazy (air shifting) with double 80's. Any opinions out there?
