Hi Marc

I use my Joki on biger dives as bailout for my MEG.
I had the same problems as you described.
I was thinking of a solution after seeing an artikle on the KISS BOB from Gordon Smith. The counterlung had some kind of jaket around the couterlung when it is not in use. If you could design some kind of ripcord around your counterlung to reduce its volume when its not in use, so the boyancy changes will be less i think it would make it easyer to manage. And you can still switch to the BOB to chek Adv integrety and sanety breaths without pulling the ripcord. The only thing the ADV would have to be a diadhram type.
I have yet to try this out my self.

Safe diving

Jim
