DIR Soft Webbing Harness with 3mm Aluminium Backplate

Description

For warm-water diving in a rash vest or a shorty, a harness sits against skin or thin neoprene for hours, and the lightest, softest version of the DIR rig makes the most sense. This Tecline set pairs the one-piece DIR harness in soft webbing with the Tecline E logo and movable D-rings with a 3 mm aluminium standard backplate of 0.85 kg and a crotch strap, and the set weighs about 1.35 kg. On a week of reef dives from a boat, the soft straps stay comfortable on sunburnt shoulders. For a single aluminium cylinder in the tropics, the light plate avoids adding ballast the diver has to offset. The DIR layout matches a heavier steel rig, so skills and hose routing carry across. The webbing is cut to fit one diver, and Tecline size this 40 by 26 cm plate for divers over 170 cm tall. Wing and tank bands are not part of the package. It suits a warm-water diver who wants a soft, light DIR rig.
