Drysuit Valve Open Or Closed? Which Is Best And Safest?
For your own safety when diving in a drysuit you should leave your drysuit valve open, but close it a quarter turn from fully open to avoid any leaks. An open drysuit valve will then automatically vent if you ascend to let out the expanded air from your drysuit.
Can You Scuba Dive When It’s Raining?
You can scuba dive when it’s raining if the rain isn’t part of a storm with strong winds that’s causing the sea state to be dangerous to dive and if the visibility hasn’t been badly affected above and below the water. If the rain is part of a storm and the winds are too much for diving you can’t dive.
Do You Need A BCD With A Drysuit For Buoyancy Control?
When you are diving in a drysuit you still need a BCD to attach your scuba tank to your back and for buoyancy when you first enter the water.
Drysuit or BCD For Buoyancy Control: Which Is Best?
It’s best to use your drysuit and not your BCD for buoyancy when diving in a drysuit, as it’s better to use only one air cell for buoyancy to have only one to vent on your ascent. If you use your BCD for buoyancy you’ll need to use both, as you’ll have to add air to your drysuit to avoid drysuit squeeze.
