my question is, what the hell are you doing diving with 20lbs of weight for a 5 mill...
Unless you're REALLY floaty to begin with, but even then. Double AL80's plus you being floaty is the only reason you MIGHT need that much weight. I think you needa do a proper weight check first
But yes, if you legit need that much weight, then you have to think about this.
Unless you have all of the weight required to keep you and your suit neutral on a belt, ditching your gear WILL, and I repeat, WILL shoot you to the surface. Even if you're only 3-4lbs positive, you're going up whether you like it or not. You're either going to be kicking down like a fiend to stay down, which is unrealistic without any air, or you're going up. I see you're concern, and it's justified, but at the same time, there is no real way to fix it. As your wetsuit compresses you're going to be incredibly heavy on the bottom, and as you ascent, you're increasing the buoyancy of the suit exponentially, so you're ascent will get faster and faster. Best thing to do is not ditch your bc, and I can't really think of any point in time where you'd have to ditch the bc at depth. If you had to at the surface then you want to float like a cork. Not to be an a$$ but just trying to get you to think about it
