Hey guys, just hit my 20th dry suit dive TLS 350. I live in South Florida with rippin currents, so some times it's necessary to do a quick desent on a hot drop to hit the wreck.
I can't seem to get all the air out at the neck area and wind up scewin around on the surface. I tried venting my wing completely, burbing the dry suit, squishing the legs and arms after suiting up, depressing the exaust valve and left arm chicken position on surface. The only thing that works is venting a seal without a glove on, and that's a pain in the ass. Spoke to Faith from DUI at Dog Rally, she said to add more weight for these type of dives but then I'm a little to negitive at the bottom and wind up with a lot of drag. Is this just a newbie problem and will correct it self with a few more dives or just poor tecknique?
