After ten years I finally decided to try the full body condom while diving
and I'm wondering how to estimate the extra lead I'll need.

I weigh 155 +/- 5 lbs and dive with 10 lbs of lead in salt water and no lead
on the infrequent fresh water dive.

The suit is a 3mm farmer john with a 3mm shortie.

Guesstimates anyone?
