That burns air, wears you out and stirs up the bottom. It happens a lot with drysuits, thick neoprene boots, buoyant fins and long legs. A small amount of weight at the ankles pulls your feet back down, so your body lines up in the water instead of fighting it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSeasoft's soft-weight design is easier on your body than hard lead. The weights wrap around your ankle and close securely, so they stay put through entries, exits and long kicking cycles.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWho they help most\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDrysuit divers who get air trapped in the legs and feet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTall divers whose long legs throw off their trim\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDivers wearing thick boots or buoyant fins\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAnyone working on horizontal trim and better air consumption\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e Seasoft\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCategory:\u003c\/strong\u003e Scuba Gear \/ Dive Weights\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer part number(s):\u003c\/strong\u003e 401-103, 401-111, 401-115\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUPC(s):\u003c\/strong\u003e 654367665978, 654367666050, 654367666210\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBefore ordering\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCheck the retailer’s product details for the exact weight options and sizing.
