You broke my statement. There are no valves to add or release air on your undergarments.Fixed your statement, BTW![]()
You're really saying the same thing here. If you add more undergarments, you have to add more weight as well, n'est pas?I guess I dive dry slightly different.
I only put enough air in the suit to loft/eliminate squeeze. No more. If I'm cold with this then I just wear heavier undergarments rather that add more air.
I understand the need to split hairs here, but the reality is the warmer you want to be means the more weight you'll have to carry. If I'm cold, I will not use my wing for any additional buoyancy, choosing to maximize the amount of air in my dry suit instead. In reality, I rarely use my wing if I'm diving a dry suit even if I'm not cold. But when I'm cold, I empty that BCD completely out!
Caveat: almost all of my drysuit diving is with twin steel tanks in a cave. I don't wear drysuits often... in fact I can't remember the last time I did. I usually dive in a bathing suit and t-shirt instead.When you're built like a manatee, you get to dive like one.
