I'm wondering whether my neoprene socks that I got (never worn them before) may have made them more boyent. Do you think that would reduce if I wore a full wetsuit? Thinking that would even me out a bit?

Wetsuit will make you more bouyant so you will get extra weight.

I still get skyward feet but once training is done you tend to be facing down in a horizontal line and that helps as MrsD says.

I have my own weight belt but I don't travel with weights. I just have the belt because I like the colour (:o it matches my BCD) and it has a good locking mechanism on it. I try to carry as much weight in my jacket as possible as it helps stop it riding up when it's got air in it.

Great piccies!!
We've just collected our underwater camera - had a giggle using it in the pool. Cannot wait to get in the open water again. Not long to wait (26th)!

jtr2803

johannalf88

Yep! Vilamendhoo! SOO excited now- only got 49 days to wait!!

:j good call!!

It's a great place for diving and I think Satoki will be back there by the time you go (he went home to Japan for a while). If you haven't already then join up the Euro Divers facebook page, I also run a Maldives group on FB, just PM me if you would like the name of it. I started a visual fish reference guide to make it easier to know what fish you saw, seems to be very useful!

Oh yes please! My OH would love that! He is a huge fish person- every week he asks if we can get a fish tank yet?!

Will look out the euro divers fbook page...
