Hi everyone:
I am new to diving with a BP/W rig and I find myself a little head heavy. My BP is a DSS and has weight plates attached to it. I also wear ankle weights and a weight belt. I dive single tank. To correct the trim issue, I was thinking about moving the weights on my weight belt towards my back. I have read people recommending weight pockets attached to lower tank cam strap.
What are the pro and cons of using a weight pocket attached to the lower tank cam strap compare to moving weights toward the back on my weight belt. I like the idea of keeping the weights on the belt since they are still ditchable but wonder whether adding weights to the the lower tank cam strap may be more effective at correcting the problem.
Thanks for your help.
