      It’s better to take a diving course instead of relying on RUclips videos i think. Watching videos is a good start of course (given the methods are not outdated or conform different protocols), but gaining skills = practice.

    Heading to Cozumel next week.....pretty rusty since my last Blue Hole 15k' skydive with subsequent SCUBA dive at 140'! Decided to play it safe(ish) and do a refresher course with my novice diver GF beforehand. Came across this short but sweet video and wanted to congratulate you on a great production. Regardless of how may dives you have or how much experience, getting current and staying current may save your life!

    Pretty good, but I saw 2 mistakes here. When you replaced the BCD your main regulator was under your arm instead of over your arm. But good edit saved it 😁
    And in my opinion for the Free Flowing Regulator mouthpiece too far from mouth or lips. Sorry had to comment on that 😁
    I have been an instructor for 25 years so I see everything 😊
    But the mask pinch was new to me. Gotta try that one. Normally I teach breaking the seal on top with 2 fingers 🤿
    But the rest very good 👏👏🤙👌

    i dont know anything about diving
    and i am curious about the part don't hold our breath, is there a reason we need to exhale slowly instead of holding our breath?

    • @ZeuSVI
      @ZeuSVI 2 месяца назад

      In theory you don't need to exhale unless you are ascending because gases expand when pressure is reduced, which is what is happening when you are going up. And if you are holding your breath your lungs could literaly explode from the inside.
      Now the reason why they teach you to never hold your breath is because it should be trained into muscle memory. Cause if you panic under water you do a lot of things by muscle memory. And if you loose your air source it's easy to panic and swim towards the surface, and then exhaling is extremely important.

    A diver in front of you will not wait for you to sink to the ground to wipe your mask of with his fin. Learn the skill while swimming or hovering. And locate the mask's nose from outside, so the little crab inside will not bite yr thumb. Have in minde that this is one of the most important skills ever.

  • @user-fh1fv8jm3k
    @user-fh1fv8jm3k Год назад +1

    On 3:30 the hand is upon the hose, but in the next scene it's under the hose, so during the demonstration the mistake was done, the same mistake is on 3:40 - the hand is upon the hose. This is not safety though. If you will be not quite carefull, you can loose you regulator. I stopped watch the video btw, don't know if there are any other mistakes. Correct me if I'm wrong.

    • @s7r7g7
      @s7r7g7 Месяц назад

      You need to always be blowing out if you don't have the reg in your mouth. So remove reg, slow stream of bubbles, blow into BCD, and then either slow stream of bubbles again or directly back to the regulator.

      If you are going to purge, you might want to try pushing your tongue slightly against the regulator. I prefer to just blow instead of purge after I take regulator out of my mouth.

    • @actonspur5231
      @actonspur5231 Год назад

      During a pre-dive buddy check, the diver can advise their buddy that their alternate air source is tucked into their RIGHT BCD pocket (FYI: the RIGHT BCD pocket is a common place for divers to stow their octo's during a dive). Bottom line: if you're unsure where your buddy's octo is stowed during the dive, then ask them during the pre-dive check, to be extra sure..
