Steel doubles are going to make you REALLY negative, often with almost no ditchable weight. Losing your bc inflation on a single tank, you can ditch weigh to stay at the surface. With doubles, if you lose your wing, you need some form of redundant buoyancy to maintain flotation. That's generally your drysuit, though some people do use redundant wings or other forms of redundant buoyancy.drgoogle wrote: Also, is there a general problem with wetsuits and diving doubles, or is it just you personally?
Generally speaking if you've gotten to the point in your diving where you're diving doubles in the Sound, you want a drysuit anyway.
