TransPac Harness
#T3000
Inspired by a remote dive exploration in Japan where divers had to hike their heavy gear through dry portions of cave to get to the underwater sumps. The explorers also needed the versatility to switch their gear configuration from backmount to sidemount to single tanks (flexibility that a traditional hard backplate does not offer). Designed like a mountaineer’s backpack, the TransPac disperses weight across the hips and back, minimizing shoulder strain. Adjustable straps adapt to a wide variety of exposure suits and means easy donning and doffing. A soft backplate accommodates sidemount diving, yet gives appropriate support for single tanks, double tanks or rebreathers.

backplate in between the TransPac and the wing to give them more weight to counterbalance thick undergarments. Dive Rite developed the TransPlate in response to this need. The TransPlate gives the same comfort and support as the TransPac, yet allows divers to use the harness with a metal backplate.
