GRADED A+ LATEST
What options do you have regarding dry suit hoods and boots? - -
--ANSWERS----They may be attached to your suit, or they may
be separate items.
What are four general guidelines for donning a dry suit? - ---
ANSWERS----1) Timing
2) Handle with care
3) Zip all the way
4) Purge excess air
Why may you need more weight for a dry suit than a wet suit? - -
--ANSWERS----Because the suits trapped air creates extra
buoyancy.
How can you distribute weight on your body (three ways)? - ---
ANSWERS----1) Use a shot weight belt or several bullet weights
to distribute the weight evenly around your waist.
2) Use ankle weights to get up to 3 kg/6 lbs off your weight belt.
3) Distribute the weight between your weight belt and a BCD
weight system.
, How do you adjust the weight worn with a dry suit to permit
neutral buoyancy at the surface and a 5 meter/15 foot safety
stop? - ---ANSWERS----With all your equipment on exhaust all
the air from your BCD and suit. Holding a normal breath you
should float at eye level. When you breath out you should sink
slightly. If you do this test with a full tank add 5lbs to make up for
the air you will use during the dive.
How do you establish positive buoyancy at the surface while
wearing a dry suit? - ---ANSWERS----Using your BCD
How should you add air to a dry suit underwater? - ---
ANSWERS----Using your suit
How should you vent air from a dry suit underwater? - ---
ANSWERS----Your exhaust valve should do this automatically,
provided you are in a vertical, feet-down position with the
exhaust valve raised. If automatic venting doesn't release air fast
enough, you can vent manually by depressing the valve.
What should you do if you get too much air in your dry suit? - ---
ANSWERS----Disconnect the inflator hose if that started the
problem. Immediately dump air from the exhaust valve, or, if the
exhaust valve is jammed shut, by pulling open your neck seal or
a wrist seal. To slow a rapid ascent, it helps to flare your body
horizontal and create drag while you dump air.
