Great video Josh. You take the guess work out of setting up gear. I love showing people the the numbers "trick" on their cam bands. It's crazy how many divers show up to the boat with their straps routed incorrectly.
Hey Josh, thanks a lot for the video! which size of book screws should be used to attach the Apeks wing to the Apeks steel backplate without a STA? The 3/4 or 3/8 ones? Couldn't find info on this. Thanks!
Jacob, no you do not have to use book bolts. You could use stainless bolts with a nut. Most backplates have plenty of space in the spine bend to accommodate a wing nut for diving doubles, plus they are only there to hold the wing in place on the backplate when not using a single tank adapter. I use them on my single tank rig, but not on my doubles rig. Safe diving, Josh
Julian, Tank bands can be found at your local Dive shop or online retailers such as Dive Right In Scuba or even Amazon. We are big fans of the Apeks/Aqualung Griplock bands. www.diverightinscuba.com/-367839.html?gclid=EAIaIQobChMIls7i-ZOW9gIVajytBh28-ABSEAQYAyABEgIHoPD_BwE

Finally, a video that explains when you do or don’t need a single tank adapter. Glad I found this!

Hey Josh,
thanks a lot for the video!
which size of book screws should be used to attach the Apeks wing to the Apeks steel backplate without a STA?
The 3/4 or 3/8 ones?
Couldn't find info on this.
Thanks!
Thanks for the video!!! One question, where do you find those 2” neoprene sleeves you use to keep the end tidy?
Do you have to use the book bolts I’ve heard some people don’t like them

Thanks for the answer!

that grip lock style locking mechanism is unreliable and can easily open. I had to put a velcro around to secure it. be wary
