Was it the weight on your back of the tanks that felt weird or what?
Congratulations!

The side was a vertical wall, so I jumped off the side into the water. The weight of the tanks and the weight belt was a lot! The total weight of the gear must have been about 25kg, which is a lot for me considering that I weigh about 57kg.
Training for the mask clearing in the bath or pool is not a bad idea.
The only thing I am still worried about is reducing the apnea reflex. I like to know that I will not accidentally breathe in water, even when blacked out.
