MuscleBob.Buffpants:
Just got back from doing 11 dives in the tropics. The Hog harness was surprisingly easy to get out of and into.

One question though, when I was diving towards the end of the dive when the AL80 was getting low on air, I had a pronounced tendancy to have a nose down attitude. What's the best way to correct this? Should I slide the tank further down the plate?

My weight was about right, at 50bar I was neutral about 1 foot underwater.

Cheers

Was the AL 80 a Luxfer? They get "tail light" as they empty. You might slide the tank down a tad, just make sure you can still reach the valve.

It was a Luxfer, the divemaster suggested more weight, I said no, I am just fine with what I had. At least I know it wasn't my sheer newbishness with the gear.

@ Andy, I am waiting for Nickleodeon to come after me for breach of trademark!

Cheers
