Oh yes it does! Trim pokets let you balance the weight out. On my recent dive trip, my girlfriend had put about 10% of her weight in her trim pockets. After a few dives, she was complaining (and she was right!) that she was not horizontal (legs pulling her down). Before the next dive, I upgraded to about 30% of the weight in the rear trim pockets, and it corrected her trim nicely! She was happy!

Using the trim pockets is an advanced feature well worth taking the time to test in a pool before going diving to get the best position for you. Or, to fine tune over time if you don,t want to take a pool session to do it...

Go for the integrated weights! You won't regret it and probably will never look back!

Cheers!
