What has an influence on weighting?
1/ Your physiology (weight) and your body mass index (weight/size).
2/ Water:buoyancy is greater in seawater (you need more weights) than in fresh water.3/ Your wetsuit:the thickness of the neoprene also influences buoyancy.
4/ The weight of the tank (for SCUBA diving) and the volume of the air content:The more air you consume, the lighter your cylinder becomes and your buoyancy tends to become positive (you float!).
