DRY SUIT OWNER MANUAL
Achieving neutral buoyancy at depth
When you have reached the desired diving depth, add just enough air to the suit and
/ or the BCD to achieve neutral buoyancy. Remember to always add small amounts
of air. Check the result before adding more. One of the keys to drysuit diving is
diving with as little ai ras necessary in the suit. Correct weight selection is essential
in ordert o dive with the least amount of air in your suit.
Use your drysuit and / or BCD to adjust the buoyancy control. If you take on
additional weight during the dive (games, debris) use a lifting bag to bring additional
weight to the surface of the water. A small lift bag can be connected to a „goody bag"
if necessary. If the lift bag recieves too much positive buoyancy and you no longer
have it under control, you can always let go of it.

amount of air in the drysuit and can lead to losing control.
Rapid ascent is dangerous and can lead to air embolism or
decompression sickness, both of which can lead to serious
injury or death.
NOTE
All gas mixtures other than air, such as argon and air
enriched with oxygen, requre special training.
NOTE
Do not use your drysuit as a lift bag. If you do this and drop
the object that youre carying you can suddenly get a strong
positive lift. This can lead to a quick ascent.
