It can be done. In the past that was the way I dove...and I practiced with it (key). I dive warm water so I suspect that buoyancy is not as much a problem as someone diving somewhere cold...like NY.
Do you use long hose set-up with Air2?

Thanks for all the info. I actually bought my bc before ow class from the shop. I'm a big guy so fitting can sometimes be a pain and I wanted to be intimately familiar with my gear. I had already done some discovery dives so I had no doubt that this is for me.
I did my buddy air share in ow fine with it. I agree a longer hose would be helpful. That's why I made this post. The nighthawk has a shoulder dump on the corrugated hose as well as one on the right shoulder. I practice using them all the time. Sometimes I just wear mybc around the house and practice reaching for the dumps and dropping my weights. So that if I ever have an emergency these movements will be second nature.
I am taking AOW this month. What skills may be inhibited with Air2?
