First time with doubles tomorrow, help with weight

It's kind of nice to have all that extra air, isn't it?

Glad you had fun. And too bad you live so close to Northeast Scuba lol

oh trust me that place is a curse. I went in planning on spending only a little bit and a couple of hundred bucks later I was on the road. My dive buddy said he wasn't buying anything just going along for the ride, he escaped about 180 bucks later. I gotta say John seemed like an absolutely awesome guy, and really knew his stuff. From now on he is where I will spend my money, he won me over. The shop reminded me of the old Army Navy stores, stuff everywhere and if you dig you will find something. Awesome store and if you are within driving distance, I highly recommend making a trip. We are already saying that it is going to end up being a every other month pilgrimage.

I hang 4 lb off the bottom of my LP85s.

May I ask how much you weigh, are you diving dry, and do you use any more weight in fresh water?

I weigh about 165, dive dry with doubles, and that is in fresh water, along with a SS plate. I think that's a little light with 200gm Thinsulate.

Thanks. That's extremely helpful and what I was hoping for. I'm assuming you're not including stage/backup light on left and light canister on right.
