Hi, nice video. Was that an IANTD class or TDI or DSAT? I ask because I'm curious as of you being SM configuration during a backmount class. Are you a SM instructor?
Hey I had a question on buoyancy. Im not sure what your depth is, but when I was diving with a 7 mil wet suit at about 30 feet, my buoyancy drop much more than expected between there and the surface I dropped to about 45 feet. Do you have any tips for keeping your buoyancy neutral as you descend? it seems to drop too quickly for me and I sink VERY fast, and sometimes not as in control as I'd like.
Sounds to me like you are overweighted. You should have enough weight to just keep you at a 15' safety stop with 500psi in your tank. Start pulling weight off and see if it helps.
Hi, and thanks for the comment. The video was filmed in Lake Denton, Sebring Florida. Max depth is 36'. Skills were performed between 8' and 30' so as to constantly force students to adjust and compensate their buoyancy.

How about adding small portions of air to your BC while descending?
Just a suggestion, I'm just a rookie when it comes to Scuba diving

Excellent. Buoyancy is key.
