First let me start by saying I know the best way to figure out what weight I need is in the water so please don't give that as an answer, I am just trying to get a rough idea of how much weight to drop.
I dive a 6lb BP with a 6lb Heavy STA and a Halcyon 36# Pioneer wing.
With my 5mil full suit I need to wear a 6lb weight belt.
Tomorrow I am going to head to the beach to get in a night dive to determine what weight I need exactly, however there is no good place to disasemble my BP/STA/Wing and switch to the BP/Wing with integrated STA at the beach. So before I go I am trying to figure out if I will need to drop more than the 6lbs on the belt when I go to the 3mil shorty, if so I want to take the BP/Heavy STA/Wing apart before I get there.
Anyone have any idea what the approximate weight I should drop is? If you dive a 5mil full and a 3mil shorty with the rest of the setup being the same, please let me know what weights you use.
For a little more info, both suits a Henderson Hyperstretch if that helps.
Thanks,
