I just picked up a used drysuit, an Oneill neoprene model. I wear a weight belt because my BC is non-weight integrated. I took a drysuit orientation to pick up some instruction in the pool, one of the exercises was overfilling the suit so I could ascend feet first and practice rolling and venting excess air. When I'd do that I found that my weight belt (30lbs) would trap the air in the legs and I'd have to let it seep into the torso so I could vent.
Is that a problem? I think I'm going to use just enough air to offset squeeze, and unless I end up feet-up with lots of extra air I would expect that just being able to trickle air where I need it would be an advantage.
Thanks,
Chris
