A little additional information about changing the inflator. After asking XDEEP, It's very easy and shouldn't be hard for any dive shop (or anyone with 2 cable ties).

I’ve changed mine twice to try different lengths and it’s super easy.

Yes, I totally agree. I have had my XDeep Zen for well over 2 years, and I can't see myself using another wing because the Zen has everything I want: supreme comfort, durability, and great design. Since I primarily travel and dive in tropical waters, I use Ghost's ultralight backplate, and this combo is the ultimate solution for me. I also use some of XDeep's other top-notch products: their frameless mask (perfect seal and vision, very comfy), their bolt snaps (best on the market), and their DSMB.

Thank you for having that honest review. I am still thinking about buying the Zen and you’ll make it more easy to buy it. 👍 What about the strong and thick harness? Is that comfy? My first thought was: ohhh no - not for me 🙈🙈

Hello! I am very happy you found the review helpful! Its actually really comfortable. You can size it the exact way you need and it holds you perfectly. The extra padding you can get also add to the confort.
@AnthoMcFly2 ай бұрын
Super review Maxime! Petite question pour toi: je pensais aussi partir sur le mode standard DIR. Les fameux pads de protections que tu decris etaient en option? Car je ne les vois que sur le modele deluxe. Mis a part le probleme de la pate, apportent ils un reel confort en plus?
@MaximeCheminade2 ай бұрын
Salut! Alors oui ils sont en options! Je voulais avoir la protection du dos, et il y avait un pack avec les pads pour le meme prix. Tu peux l’ajouter si tu utilise le configurateur. En terme de plus, oui ca ajoute un poil de comfort, mais ca dependra surtout de comment ta wing est sérée. :)

Did you keep the original inflator hose? I find that mines feels kind of short. Not sure if it's normal or if I need to adjust how I'm wearing the backplate wing, but I feel like the inflator hose is short and I really have to force it to bend in order to manually inflate in an emergency.
@MaximeCheminade2 ай бұрын
I kept the normal one, and it's fine for me. Check the length of it. There are 3 different dimensions of corrugated hose. You can change them easily with some zip ties.

I'm considering buying an Xdeep wing and stuck between a Zeos and Zen. I'm female & short 5'4" and like the idea of Zeos 28lb (as opp to 38lb - think this is a big jump) and the Zen.. leaning towards Zen with small steele backplate as generally cold Irish water diving. But wondering if the dimensions are much bigger in Zen and if it might come down very far at the bottom of my back and butt. Any thoughts? Lou

Hi Louise, Thank you very much for your message! Before I can answer to you, you are saying that much of your diving is in the Irish cold.. Do you often dive thick wetsuit? Or dry suit? Do you plan to travel with it?
@louisealcorn5198Ай бұрын
I mainly dive Irish waters and mainly in drysuit but semidry in summer months sometimes. I actually got my Zen deluxe wing delivered today. Ima littke anxious as it looks pretty long and sits low at my shoulders down and well down on my butt. Its just different i suppose. Any thiughts welcome. L
