The XDeep Zeos Deluxe system is ideal for those who want the balanced trim of a genuine backplate and wing combination but one easier to get in and out.
The XDeep Zeos Deluxe Wing System is especially attractive for divers switching to "wings" from jacket BCs for the first time.
Through technical design, constant testing and evolution, the XDeep Zeos Wing is balanced to help achieve a flat and expert trim. The centre of gravity of the gas in the cylinder and the centre of buoyancy of the Zeos are perfectly matched.
As a result, your stability will be significantly better. You will enjoy improved gas consumption, enhanced buoyancy control, and easier finning. No more sea horse positions forced by traditional BCDs.
The XDeep Zeos Deluxe Wing System comes with either an aluminium or stainless steel backplate and in two lift capacities, 28lbs and 38lbs. It is also available as a different colours and as a Classic Zeos Wing System with a single-loop harness.

Super tough Zeos Wing
At the start and end of each dive, the XDeep Zeos Deluxe Wing System holds you high out of the water. The design ensures most of the wing stays underwater, using more buoyancy. This provides extra lift keeping your head and shoulders clear of the waves. Wait in comfort for your pick-up.
Underwater, you can eliminate trade-offs and experience perfect trim made simple and easy by the exact geometry of the XDeep Zeos.
The XDeep Zeos wing features a highly durable outer shell crafted from Cordura® 1100 dTEX, ensuring your scuba gear will withstand more and last longer. Its inner bladder is constructed from Nylon 440dTEX.
Backplate and Deluxe Harness
Choose between beautifully engineered stainless steel or aluminium backplates. The 2.5kg steel backplate is often preferred by drysuit divers, whilst the aluminium is ideal for travelling or wetsuit diving.
The fully adjustable harness features durable Nexus Quick Release Buckles made of polyacetal, resistant to saltwater and extreme temperatures. Easily and quickly adaptable to nearly any body shape, it provides the best fit.
For added comfort, the backplate is fitted with an XDeep 3D Mesh Backplate and Shoulder Pads.
Single Tank Adapter
The XDeep Zeos Deluxe Wing System comes complete with a single-tank adapter and two cam bands that secure all components together. The system with an aluminium backplate comes with an aluminium single tank adapter plate, whilst the steel version comes with a stainless steel one.

Product FAQs
What's the difference between XDeep Zeos "Deluxe" and "Standard"?
While the price difference between Deluxe and Standard Zeos wing systems is minimal, the Standard system is also an attractive alternative for advanced divers en route to technical diving (and/or training) who plan to switch to twinset diving.
This is based on a continuous-loop harness, a single piece of webbing without break points or clips, threaded through the backplate. It is DIR simplicity, robust, with fewer failure points. Once properly adjusted to your body and what you're wearing, you're ready to go. Note that there is no option for on-the-fly adjustments.
Do I need to use the crotch strap, what's it for?
On the surface, the strap will also prevent your rig from "riding up" behind you, locking the harness in place against your body. All wing systems come with crotch straps.
What wing size is best for UK diving - 28 or 38?
In the UK or similar environments, where surface swells can be challenging, the 38lb wing is optimal. It provides the necessary lift to maintain a "heads-up" position and offers a greater safety margin for managing in-water surface emergencies.
The 28, on the other hand, is an equally attractive alternative for travelling divers who mostly dive in warm and temperate waters (if you don't require heavy lead or bulky thermal protection). If you're sticking to a 12L (or less capacity) aluminium or steel cylinder and want minimalism, it will do the job.
What's the difference between a stainless steel and aluminium backplate?
If you want to add weights while reducing the load on your weight belt at your dive destination in a balanced manner, or use the aluminium backplate with a drysuit and undergarments in the UK, there's another way to do so.
You can always add two empty fabric trim weight pockets to your tank straps. For the sake of balance, preferably one on the top band and the other on the bottom one, each aligned against the wing, one up, one down.
Stainless Steel is regarded as the best choice for cold-water diving, adding 2-3 Kg, which automatically allows you to reduce the amount of lead you need to carry on your belt or in your pockets. Most semi-dry and drysuit divers will choose the stainless steel backplate while still using the trim weight pockets on the back.
What is the XDeep modular weight system about?
Can I use the ZEOS system for twinset diving?
If you move on to twinsets in the future, all you need to do is get a purpose-made twinset wing sized for doubles (both in shape and the middle section of the doughnut-bladder) and with minimal air trapping. The Zeos uses industry-standard spacing (11 inches/27.9cm) for the holes in its backplate and wings. This means it is highly compatible with a variety of wing brands, single-tank adapters, and crotch straps.
When it comes to wings, components and craftsmanship are important.
