I have the 6 foot surface marker pro DSMB Surface Marker which is very well built and offers 20 kgs of lift.
I am a relatively light diver, I dive a soft plate, aluminum tank (s80) and a 3mm wet suit with 3kgs of lead.
No matter how hard I try I cannot keep the DSMB upright on the surface, I found that I need 2-3 extra kilos and to deflate my wing fully to be able to hold it upright.
I used other smaller DSMBs and they seem to be a lot easier to keep standing while doing my safety stop.
I'm now looking for a smaller DSMB to purchase. I want one that is ideally just as tall as my current one but with less lift.
Ideally something in the $20-50 price range.
