I find it easier to equalize as the season progresses. The deeper I go the less equalization I seem to need. The 12ft range bothers me but once past that it easy. 120ft is as deep as I have been so far.

You're right..... that is the same with me too. The first 20 feet for me is where I will have problems...if any. After that it's smooth sailing. Wish we could broadcast this little known fact to divers that have quit early because of ear trouble. Just need to break that barrier, then diving is great
