makes me wonder why BC dumps dont use auto dry suit vents...
 
Canadian_Diver:
Well, I myself don't use my BC when dry diving except on the surface.

Some consider this unorthodox or unsafe. I disagree. My weighting is such that by the time I put enough air in my suit to take the squeeze off, I am also neutrally bouyant.

Ditto. During the dive I leave my dumpvalve a few clicks shut, enough that it holds the air, but should I go vertical it dumps.
