Dived my double HP100s for the first time....

Man they are heavy buggers out of the water but really balanced in the water.

My only other issue is weighting, I have a 6lb BP and had another 10lbs of lead, wearing my TLS350 and a DUI Polartec Fleece (200g I believe) felt close but may have been a little light.

I will figure it out but just was wondering what others are using for extra weight if any in a similar set up.

I am 6'1" 260, and as much as I would like to lie and say mostly muscle that is not the case

Oh the dive was also in salt water

Hhmm, with 100's I use a steel BP, 9 pound V-weight, drysuit, 200 gram undergarment. 6-0, 185 pounds. You very well may be underweighted. Breath them down to 500psi and see if you can hold a 10 foot stop.

I'd guess you'll need at least a couple more pounds.

I will thanks I did feel a bit light like I said even with a full tank thought I should sink a bit faster Ill go with a few more pounds and see how I feel with the tanks low.
Thanks

PST HP-100s (3500psi) doubles with Fusion drysuit and 250gram undies and 4-6lbs with plate and lights and such and I use no other weight, in fresh. 5'10" 215lb (twisted steel and sex appeal)
