Ok, I'll get back on topic, good post about diving dry. I personally find it a little easier to manage my bouyancy with my BC and not totally with my DS. In my class I was taught it was acceptable either way but it is generally easier to manage one air bubble (bouyancy with DS only) vs. two air bubbles (DS and BC). I happen to leave my automatic dump valve on my DS 2 to 3 clicks towards closed vs. all the way open as I found I was dumping air just as quickly as I was adding it in the all the way open position.
I'm not completly sure what you mean here,is the valve allmost open or closed.
When allmost closed you'll have to dump manualy,
or when allmost open your just compensating for the sensetivity of the valve and therefore venting air when you raise your arm.
Ok English is not my 1st language,maybe that why I miss the point, but so are most of us Non English are taking over
Cheers,
