Help with trim
I went for a quick dive today to work on getting my weighting nailed down. I did some training type stuff to get the tank down to about 500psi. Once I got it to 500 I went up to 15 feet and starting slowly shedding weight. With 7 pounds (no air in the BC) and a full breath I was neutral. When I exhaled the breath I sank. Thats about right for weight correct?
What I did notice was that when I just hover I slowly tilt till I am in a heads up position. I am naturally a bit of a sinker. In the pool I try to float but I sink, feet first. Is there a way to trim myself out so that I hover horizontal or is a bit of sculling with the hands (very minimal) normal?? Thanks in advance for putting up with all of my newbie questions!! |
