Halcyon Aluminum Backplate

Overview

The Halcyon Aluminum Backplate is a lightweight backplate that Halcyon describes as travel-friendly and suited to warm water or travel diving. Each plate is CNC-machined from high-grade aluminum, then hand-polished so no sharp edges remain. It comes in three sizes, and Halcyon lists each one bare, with harness, or with the Cinch harness upgrade.
