Diver's Notes

Thermally, I was very comfortable. Weight-wise, I felt like I was yoyoing a lot more than I should have, but it seemed like I had to keep my lungs close to empty on the shallower parts of the dive to avoid rising too quickly. I had no air in the BC, but the dive was really shallow

SAC was 0.76 cf/min.
