First of all thanks for all those helpful informations!
I'm having no problems with buoyancy as soon as I once was below 12 ft. After that I can easily keep level even at 6 ft and go back down from there without any difficulty. Being able to control buoyancy during the dive that easy was the major point why I fell in love with this bc in the first place.
It's just when I'm going down from the surface (where I have quite a filled bc in order to stay afloat conveniently) I'm struggeling to get beyond a certain depth.
Thing is, I couldn't explain it to myself from a physics pov. When I deflate my bc, exhale and then go down, how can it stop me from going further down at a couple of feet if I don't inflate my bc? Well, the answers I got here led me to a good starting point: Unconsciously breathing/kicking/skulling during descent (most likely a combination of all three).
I also will try the different approach to descent by going heads down finning and using the butt valves, just to see if I suits me more and if it does, why not stick to it?
I'd keep adding slightly more weight in the back of my mind as a last resort.
And only if all of that doesn't work (I have pool-time on Sunday and will report afterwards
), I will return my beloved 911 and replace it with some acme bc
Thanks again folks, you rock!
