DIVING WITH THE
WEIGHT & TRIM SYSTEM
Diving with the Weight & Trim System requires little or no change from your
normal diving pattern. However, you will immediately notice that diving is
more comfortable and the Weight & Trim System provides better trim.Take
notice of how your weights are riding on your body and do not hesitate to
make adjustments until you get it adjusted to the most comfortable position
for you.
REMOVING YOUR WEIGHTS BEFORE EXITING THE
WATER
When exiting the water onto a ladder or swim step it may be advantageous to
remove the weight pocket assemblies.You can hand them to someone or tie
them off so you may exit the water without the weight.To do this, simply
grasp the release handle and pull the assembly free, taking care not to drop it.
Once the assembly has been handed off, repeat the process with the remaining
assembly.
Cross-releasing is releasing the right weight pocket assembly with the left hand
instead of the right hand. Cross-releasing can result in all the weight being on
one side of the diver, resulting in the diver being unbalanced, making it difficult
to maneuver and handoff or tie off the weight pocket assembly.
! CAUTION !
DUI advises against cross-releasing a weight pocket
unless it is absolutely necessary
such as in an emergency.
