• Check to see if your weight is at the proper place by
placing your thumb at the top edge of the hipbone
on each side.The top edge of the weight pocket
assembly should be even with the thumb. See Figure
4. If not, shorten the shoulder strap length by pulling
downward on the strap underneath the buckle or
lifting the buckle upward releasing the strap to make
it longer.
• After a few dives, you may find that having the weight
pockets higher or lower than this point to be more
comfortable for you and provide you with better
trim (position) in the water.
• The weight pocket assemblies should not interfere when the legs are lifted. If
there is interference, the weight pocket assemblies can be moved higher on
the hip.
• The point at which the shoulder
straps separate from the harness in
the back, should be 3-6 inches
(7.6-15.2 cm) from the base of
the neck. See Figure 5a. If the
crossover is too high it will
dig into the back of the neck.
See Figure 5b.Too low, and
the shoulder straps will have a
tendency to fall off the shoulders. See Figure 5c.
