When do you need the Squid Heavy weight supplement?

If you notice that you are not achieving the desired longitudinal stability in free fall with the standard Squid neck weight, the Squid Heavy additional weight can be a valuable complement. By adding this additional weight, you increase the weight at the neck to up to 2 kg. This allows you to shift the weight further forward, which improves longitudinal stability. By increasing the weight at the neck, you simultaneously reduce the weight on your belt, so your total weight and buoyancy remain the same.

This forward shift of the center of gravity creates a stabilizing effect that helps you maintain an optimal position in open water. The Squid Heavy additional weight is particularly useful when diving with thicker wetsuits in cold water, as these suits have more buoyancy and require additional weight adjustment to achieve the desired stability and trim position.
