Dave,

Might there be a problem with your converter? You are over a second quicker than myself, but your 60' times are only about a tenth different - and I'm heavier, less gear, alot tighter on the converter and on DOT's. I would have expected you to be deep into the 1.3's with your performance.

When I experimented with some converters a few years ago, the really loose ones gave me consistently performance - slower, but consistent!
