Donning/doffing Sidemount harness in drysuit & gloves, plus Garry Dallas''s "slip knots" for bungees
"Ask Garry" brings you some more tips for Sidemount diving and configuration resolutions.
Here I'm showing the benefit of using "slip knots" to allow a larger aperture in the shoulder harness for donning and doffing your Sidemount harness. This is especially important for those divers in colder climates, with thicker undersuits while using dry gloves.
Techniques for exiting a harness are a common issue, but resolved here for you. All done in "no frills" style. Wetsuits make for relatively easy diving. Drysuit diving adds a little more thought processes to certain techniques. I spend most of my spare time, concentrating on techniques to improve my diving, and yours!
If you like this, follow me and let me know if you want to see more of this kind of stuff.

For a number of years, CCR diving has become so much more of a practical, somewhat reliable and accessible transport to get divers where they want to be, but we still haven't managed to download a program to our busy and preoccupied brains that keeps us from diligence or making the occasional mistake. Try as we may, we are not infallible and need to protect ourselves from things we wish we coul...

X-Deep NX700 configuration review by Garry Dallas
Переглядів 6 тис.4 роки тому
If you're going to reinvent the wheel, a manufacturer has to come up with something special to get creditworthy status. So rather than follow orthodox design, literally turning the turntable 90 degrees offers a configuration that surpasses all the other regulators in the X-Deep NX700 series 1st stage. When I say, the last regulator you'll ever need, this one fits all dive system configurations,...

Sidemount Inflator system configuration - "Ask Garry"

Fourth Element Technical shorts
Переглядів 1,2 тис.4 роки тому
A short video on my thoughts about the new technical shorts from Fourth Element. After 4 months using them in salt and fresh water cave diving, they've stood a bit of hammer. I expected more deterioration to be honest, but other than a couple of scuffs, when treated this harsh, they worked extremely well in all configurations, twinset, sidemount and ccr. Recreational divers will love them too! ...

Sidemount Slip-Knot for looped bungees - "Ask Garry"
Переглядів 23 тис.6 років тому
Garry's tips...I've been asked many times for a solution to fixed loop bungees on a sidemount harness. There's no need for a webbing extension on the shoulders, no need for buckles. Just a properly adjusted and fitted harness and slip knots to locate your bungees on the webbing. These can be lifted or lowered when getting your arms through when donning and doffing your harness.
