Having learned to dive late in life I made up for it in my first year by clocking up 120+ open water dives in places from the UK to Australia. I went from a non diver to a technical deco diver in 9 months and loved every second of it. Since having kids not been able to travel as much so spend my time watching videos and reminiscing, hope you enjoy my site as much as I have making it.

LOL.you did a pop up because your suit was being used as a buoyancy device. next time, right before you crap your paints doing an out of control assent. open up your arm seal and let all the air out of your suit. (pointing the arm up) or neck. good luck.

You need to revisit your training material. Or get a better instructor. 40 lbs is a ton of weight even in a drysuit with heavy undergarments. Everyone is different but with your buoyancy issues you had it needs to be addressed, for your own safety.

Your advises are wrong. You should never use a dry suit as a buoyancy device. Check manuals. BCD is and will always remain the primary source of buoyancy control.
