The Dive Rite Classic Wing has stood the test of time as the first aircell designed specifically for use with double cylinders. With { 55 lb | 25 kg } of lift, the Classic Wing was designed to carry double steel { 104 ft3 | 17 L } with multiple stage bottles and other accessories. The smaller size {40 lb | 18.1 kg} would be appropriate for use with lighter Aluminum cylinders. Using a horseshoe design, divers can target lift where it’s needed to balance out their rig and stay in trim.

Compared to the original “Doubles Wing” released in 1985, today’s Classic version has an enhanced construction using a premium 1000 denier ballistic nylon outer bag and a heavy duty 210 nylon laminated inner bladder. The solid center panel features two sets of 316 stainless steel grommets for mounting so a diver can tweak the wing position to adjust trim. A piece of 2-inch nylon webbing runs down the center of the Classic wing to reinforce the grommets.

The top outlet is centered so it’s nestled between the cylinders under the isolation valve and clear of hose routing. The standard inflation assembly is a { 12 in | 30.5 cm } corrugated hose with a { 15 in | 38.1 cm } low pressure BC inflator hose and your choice of pull-to-dump remote exhaust elbow or a plain elbow. Also available with a { 16 in | 40.6 cm } corrugated hose, and plain or remote exhaust elbow. The pull dump over pressure valve is in the traditional lower left corner of the wing. Welded urethane bladder flanges allow easy, tool free removal and replacement of corrugated hoses and over pressurization valves. Appealing to a minimalist diving philosophy, the Classic Retro wing is free of any bungee, tabs, or excess clutter.
