I think that when I reach for my left post during a valve drill, some air leaks from the valve.
Do you guys maybe rotate or change your trim so you don’t leak from the dump when closing the left post?
No rotation or change of trim is required. If you are in a horizontal trim arched back and your head is up - paying attention to your buddies the valve is easy to reach. You do not even need to change your body position. If you lose a lot of air to affect your buoyancy you have too much air in the suit. If you need that much air to keep you warm you need thicker undergarments.
Drysuit is for warmth - BCD is for buoyancy.
