    Warmer than Santi BZ400?

    Have you tried the Weezle Extreme now, if so, how was it, and was it easy to get the air out again?

    Weezles are Warm

    Is it easy to get air out of the Weezle? Or do you have to get vertical to get it out?

    Uncontrolled ascent - almost what to do?

    Just forget I asked what you should do. You obvious just want talk about my lack of correct weighting, which I do know the important of, but in practise we never did that. "Uncontrolled" ascent is one of the most common failure in diving its a general question.

    Uncontrolled ascent - almost what to do?

    My actual question was not to discuss correct weightning which I do know, but what to do in a situation like this, and what should your partner do? You could loose some weithgt and then it does not matter that your have the correct amount of weight in the beginning, now you have not. Then what...

    Uncontrolled ascent - almost what to do?

    Yes it would have been nice, but the instructors are always in a hurry because they have to finish so they can be home with their family etc. I did ask them why we did not check our weights in the class, and he think they will do that next time. The thing is they thought we where all...

    Uncontrolled ascent - almost what to do?

    That might be true. Maybee I started having problems when I started to think I was too light, and got nervoues about that because I was not sure .. about my weigthning. ---------- Post added October 13th, 2015 at 03:16 AM ---------- Again, I am taking a course and it is not a part of the...

    Uncontrolled ascent - almost what to do?

    I decided to go up head first because I was low on air and was on 10-12 meters so it was not catastrophic to go up but it could have been if I stayed down because I was running out of air. I was in a dry suit so to try to control my ascent feet up is not something I think I could do. I can swim...

    Uncontrolled ascent - almost what to do?

    , I did not have an uncontrolled ascent, because I hold on to the instructor on the ascent so went up together. It was an almost uncontrolled ascent. He did try to slow down the ascent. But I do not think it is the wright thing to do just to swim further when the depths gets lower and lower...

    Uncontrolled ascent - almost what to do?

    The thing is that I know how much weight I should use in a wet suit but not in a dry suit. I was not sure I had the correct weight on me, I was a bit unsure, so I did ask one of the instructors and another experience diver, and did told it was normal to feel a little light at the end at the dive...

    Uncontrolled ascent - almost what to do?

    No is not. There has never been the time to check. ---------- Post added October 12th, 2015 at 01:24 PM ---------- No I was not light on previous dives, and all the other dives where to short to almost empty the bottle. And I KNOW I should do a weight check, but I cannot dive alone, and my...

    Uncontrolled ascent - almost what to do?

    That is openly, but we have never done a proper weight check so I did not know I thought it was ok but I was not sure. But I have signed up for another course where we will do this. I can not do this check myself.

    Uncontrolled ascent - almost what to do?

    I took a lot of stones to try to keep myself down, but my instructor pushed it out of my hands. He was aware that I was to light and had difficulty holding myself down. After that he continued swimming and the depth got lower and lower and it became more and more difficult for me not to have an...

    Uncontrolled ascent - almost what to do?

    I was on an education dive (deepdive), and at the end of the dive I discover that I have a little lead, and will find it difficult to keep me down. What is best to do in such a situation, in addition to empty one's BCD / suit perfectly for air? And what is the best one's buddy can do? Collect...
