OK,... heres the question up front.
I'm at the surface ready to desend; I empty the air in the BC and Exhale;
Is that all I should have to do to desend?
Now for explanation......
When I do all of the above,... i start to desend but then i have to inhale again and i pop right back up to the surface. Luckily i have always been near a desent line so i just grab hold and pull myself down. The weird thing is once i get 5 - 8 ft down i have no more problems desending. I wear a 2 pc FJ and am 185 wearing 24lbs of weight.
Once I desend to the location, like 35-40 ft. i dont seem to have any problems with bouyancy.
Do you think maybe a 5lb tank weight would make a difference?
