Diver's Notes

Night dive with Michael. Due to buddy separation surfaced twice. Slight current. Lots of crabs. Spotted 2 octopuses. Good dive overall.
First successful dive with the Apeks wing. Harness sliders proved to work very well and after dive I could doff my scuba unit almost effortlessly.
Had 8kg lead on my belt, which was too much for 12ltr 300bar tank. I felt quite overweighted, at the bottom I had to add quite a lot of air to my wing. Next time I will take 6kg, should work better.
