so I finally had the chance to make a handful of dives on my new stitched meg lungs and they work a treat, I am now able to archive good horizontal trim without any additional top weight and still the tanks in standard configuration (valves down).

I had them stitched on th inner sides and its reduces the total volume but not that it creates me an issue for lung volume even working very hard. Great job ISC.

Can you describe your setup? Wetsuit, tank type, bailout tank, additional weight, BP type, location of tanks on scrubber.

I am trying to work thru a issue with being butt heavy in a wetsuit before coming to Thialand in Sept. De-invert tanks is a solution I have not tried and maybe this is the answer.

Basically with both the above set ups I dropped 1KG ankle weights that I used under the lungs to trim me out.
