    Glove thickness for Cold Water Diving

    That is a hard question to answer and it depends on your thermal requirements. Get the thinnest pair of gloves or mitts that allow you the flexibility and dexterity while maintaining the warmth. 5mm is a good place to start. That being said, in those temps I dive dry and with drygloves...

    Getting Horizontal Trim

    Let just say the flag was "passed off" to me without me knowing while I was working on my trim. But I am quite aware of the dangers that surround being connected to a surface marker. Thanks. How will this change once I start with negative fins? ---------- Post added January 24th, 2013 at...

    Getting Horizontal Trim

    Here is me attempting prone position This is me kicking (I seem to be more horizontal here) Definitely have my knees down but it might be attributed to me posing. Note at the time I was using Atomic split fins which are neutral to buoyant. Oh and I had a stupid flag clipped off on me.

    Getting Horizontal Trim

    It rides in the channel of the STA. If I understand correctly, all that it will accomplish is essentially making my bp heavier (6lb vs 8lb) but what i really need is to add weight farther from the pivot point to utilize the leverage?.

    Getting Horizontal Trim

    Thanks for the input from everyone. I'll be more diligent with making sure I maintain posture. I sourced an al bp from a friend that I can borrow. I might bring that along with my STA weight (as this combination adds 2 lbs to the total rig). I also looked back at my notes and on a few dives I...

    Getting Horizontal Trim

    This is during travel, so changing tanks in unlikely. I would rather not change fins and I'm a frog kicker. Truthfully though, how bad would 1 or 2 pounds be if it comes to it? If I can swim it up with full tanks and diving at recreational depths? I'll still have my liftbag in my backplate if...

    Getting Horizontal Trim

    I'm not currently wearing any additional weight other than the backplate. I might try to get thin liners for my boots to add some positive buoyancy for my feet. Ron, I'm keeping the F1's.:D

    Getting Horizontal Trim

    I wasn't quite sure where to put this, so I figured adv. scuba would garner the right focus and publicity. After looking at photos from last summer I noticed my trim isn't where I want it to be for single tank warm water diving. Wearing: 3mm full wetsuit and 6lb SS backplate, al80, I am...
