| Re: Diving Dry
no class for me either... just careful practice in a pool with friends, only one of whom had previously dived dry (albeit in england... bbrrrrrr!).
IMHO feet up acsent is the thing to be most aware of, as you mentioned.
be prepared to play with undergarments and weighting.
I only use enough fill gas to keep the pinch off, wing still used for bouyancy control. once you go dry there is no going back. people still laugh at me in Hawaii when I put my dry suit on, but after 2.5 hours in the water, they're cold, I'm contemplating flooding my suit to cool down (not quite that extreme on the warm, but you get the idea)!
be safe, practice practice practice!
