I see the big points have been covered so I'll just toss in a quick tip. I notice that you had to hunt for your inflator. A handy technique is to not let go of it as you descend. Instead, after getting downward motion, I switch the control to my right hand. My console is in my left hand so I can monitor my rate of descent. This can be handy when you have no visual references.
Remember that after you get going down you still need to add air to your BC so you don't crash into the bottom. It kind of looks like Bugs Bunny dropping out of an airplane without a parachute and just stops before he hits the ground.
In addition to keeping my controls in hand, having my arms crossed like that helps to keep me streamlined.
