Ski, you just made me think here - I forgot that we use the slow inflators, and the stroke wings use the fast ones - good point. I also have my argon inflator reg detuned to where it will not deliver very fast - for obvious reasons. A good diver anticipates his buoyancy, a stroke has bondage wings . A great diver needs little or no bc action, since he has the correct gear in the first place.
