Hollis CRIB DT50 Elite Aluminum Backplate Package

- DT 50 Wing -

Lift Distribution that Supports Trim with Heavy Cylinders
Twin cylinder setups with increased weight often require lift that helps maintain stable positioning underwater. A 360 degree tapered profile directs buoyancy toward the hips, supporting balanced horizontal trim during the dive while still providing reliable surface flotation. The 50 lbs (23 kg) lift capacity aligns with configurations using drysuit exposure protection and heavier cylinders in cold water environments where additional buoyancy is required.

Integrated Mounting with Durable Bladder Construction
Tank slots allow direct connection to compatible backplate systems while also supporting occasional single tank dives without requiring a single tank adapter plate, helping reduce extra hardware within the configuration. A 2-piece bladder construction combines an HD laminated 1680D Cordura outer shell intended to resist abrasion and punctures with a 420 nylon internal bladder that maintains buoyancy integrity, forming a structure suited for repeated dive use.

Practical Control Placement with Service Accessibility
Buoyancy adjustments are supported through a K style inflator with crushproof rubber hose that allows flexible positioning and oral inflation access, while a lower left pull relief valve enables gas venting when horizontal or head down. A central elbow helps reduce tank valve or regulator interference and supports streamlined hose routing, and a welded flange with one piece retainer allows servicing without tools. Whether managing heavy twin cylinders in cold water or preparing for technical dives that demand reliable lift and straightforward control, this wing supports consistent buoyancy and practical usability throughout the dive.
