What influences ballasting?

1/ Your physiology (weight) and body mass index (weight/height).
2/ The water: seawater offers more buoyancy (you weigh more) than freshwater.
3/ Your wetsuit: depending on the thickness of the neoprene, you float more or less.
4/ The weight of your tank (for scuba diving) and the volume of air it contains: the more air you consume, the lighter your tank, and the more buoyant it becomes (you float!).

Brakes / Weight fix / Lead locks

Lead locks (also known as weight locks or weight fixes) are used to link your leads together: this prevents them from moving when you're in the water.
