I always wear a 3mm suit.

I would prefer a more padded rig, so the Transpac and OMS IQ harnesses fit the bill. I am wavering toward to OMS IQ for a couple of reasons; it can take a backplate; and it is $100 cheaper.

Scubatoys have good prices on OxyCheq wings, and I am looking at the Mach V and Signature Series, 30lbs lift.
Take a look at the Oxycheq site. There wings are the best. They also have a harness system. I don't think ST has it on their site, but they probably carry it in the store. And if they don't, they can get it in. When I bought my Oxycheq doubles wings from ST, they ordered them and had them in within a couple of days.
