Randy, you explained the problem completely, but in my opinion,
convoluted dive gear is not the answer - the risk of entaglement and or losing
the weignts is enormous with the Kluge, and it is useless for any technical
diving (yet it it sold as a "technical" bc). There are far better and cheaper
ways to fly, and I can see that you need the tape. - G
