Subject: Wings style BCs and trim

I recently tried out the Zeagle Wings BC with twin bladders.  (I Normally
dive with an AP Valves Buddy Commando Stab).

I found that 1. The natural attitude was head down making it difficult to see
                where I was going.
             2. Air migrated from one wing to another, flipping me over.

I was using twin 10 litre tanks and the Zeagle weight-in-pockets system.

The best thing about them was the large amount of lift available for surface
floatation.  This makes waiting for the boat much more relaxing.

Does anyone have any comments on how I could improve/eliminate these trim
problems?
