I just got my first back inflate BC and am trying to figure out how much weight to put in the trim pockets on the back. 12lb seems to be perfect weight for me with an aluminum tank. Just unsure how I should split up the weight.
 
A good rule of thumb for starting out is 1/3 of the weight in the back, 2/3 of the weight in the front....then tweak it from there to achieve "perfection".

Hope that helps a little...

Scott
