Description
Build Your Hollis Doubles Rig. Your Way.
The Hollis CRIB Custom Doubles BP/Wing Package gives technical divers the ability to build a complete backplate-and-wing system around their cylinder configuration, exposure protection, diving environment, and personal preferences.
Choose your preferred wing, backplate material, harness style, colors, and optional accessories to create a doubles setup that delivers the lift, stability, durability, and streamlined configuration needed for advanced and technical diving.
Whether you’re diving compact doubles, larger steel cylinders, drysuit configurations, decompression bottles, or overhead environments, the Hollis CRIB system gives you a solid foundation that can be tailored to your specific needs.
Choose Your Doubles Wing
The CRIB Doubles Package offers two wing configurations designed for different cylinder sets and buoyancy requirements.
Hollis DT45 Dual Bladder Wing – 45 Pounds of Lift Per Bladder
The DT45 features two independent bladders, each providing approximately 45 pounds of lift. With two K-style inflator assemblies and two pull dumps, the DT45 provides redundant buoyancy capability for technical divers who require an independent backup buoyancy system.
The DT45 is well suited for configurations including:
- Double AL80s
- Double LP50s
- Double LP85s
- Similar compact and mid-size doubles configurations
Hollis DT50 Wing – 50 Pounds of Lift
The DT50 features a single bladder providing approximately 50 pounds of lift. It includes one K-style inflator and one pull dump and is designed to provide ample lift for larger and heavier doubles configurations.
The DT50 can accommodate cylinder sets including:
- Double AL80s
- Double LP50s
- Double LP85s
- Double HP100s
- Double HP117s
- Double HP120s
- Double LP104s
- Double LP108s
Both wing options feature a rugged 1680D Cordura nylon outer shell protecting a 420D nylon internal bladder. Standard bolt spacing and three tank-height positions allow divers to fine-tune cylinder placement and underwater trim.
Select Your Backplate
Choose the backplate that best matches your weighting and travel requirements.
Hollis Aluminum Backplate 2.0
At approximately 1.5 pounds, the aluminum Backplate 2.0 provides a lightweight platform ideal for travel or divers who do not need significant additional ballast.
Constructed from 3 mm EN AW 6061 aluminum, the plate features a hard-anodized marine black finish for durability and corrosion resistance.
Hollis Stainless-Steel Backplate 2.0
At approximately 6.5 pounds, the stainless-steel Backplate 2.0 adds useful ballast directly along the diver’s centerline.
Constructed from 4 mm AISI 304 stainless steel, the plate receives a corrosion-resistant finish designed for demanding diving environments.
The added weight can also reduce the amount of separate lead required when diving drysuits or thick exposure protection.
Both backplate options include upper and lower padding designed to provide additional comfort when carrying heavy doubles.
Choose Your Harness
Hollis Solo Harness
The Hollis Solo uses a streamlined one-piece harness design that minimizes unnecessary hardware and potential failure points.
Its continuous-webbing configuration provides a secure, highly adjustable fit and is an excellent choice for divers who prefer a traditional technical-diving harness.
Hollis Elite 2 Adjustable Harness
The Elite 2 provides additional adjustability and easier donning and doffing while retaining the rugged design needed for doubles.
Available in multiple sizes, the Elite 2 incorporates adjustable shoulder sections and a chest strap, making it particularly useful for divers who frequently switch between wetsuits and bulky drysuit configurations.
Both harness systems feature:
- Heavy-duty shoulder and waist webbing
- Softer crotch-strap webbing for improved comfort
- Stainless-steel D-rings
- Stainless-steel waist buckle
- Padded shoulder straps
- Technical-diving-oriented attachment points
