Northern Diver Exhaust Valve Leaking

[rob.mwpropane]

Closing it a few clicks should work. I usually have mine open, in my bag suit I rarely touch it and count on position to keep the air in but the neoprene is so much easier to maneuver in that I have to turn it down sometimes, like yesterday swimming on my back to get a shot of these clowns

Gosh that looks awesome. I just realized yet one more thing has been added to my diving bucket list.

edit: forgot about the exhaust valve for a second, lol. I'll turn it down a few and go from there. Thanks!

If I get around to it I'll pull it back apart and maybe stretch the spring a hair.

If you ever make it to the west coast I can arrange the sea lion show but no guarantee on the viz.

I'm not sure what is considered "bad viz"? It's so subjective. I just got back from NC and was told the viz wasn't that great inshore, only 50'

To me it was amazing. I'm pretty happy if I can make out the color of my fins or see my buddies light in the fog.

Either way, I'm greatly appreciative of the invite. I will for sure take you up on it one day....I'll even ante up for that round I owe you!

Yesterday was 30+ viz which is about as good as it gets here 1/2 of that is good 1/3 is normal good, sea lions shooting out of the gloom can be disconcerting at times of lower viz.
