Just shut up underwater and let me enjoy my piece and quiet. There is a reason why i enjoy diving so much
People will become complacent with this technology. Hand signals might be better because it requires the divers to remain close to their buddy to be able to visually see hand signals and communicate.
I love your reviews because it’s the only place I know that I’m going to get an honest opinion of the product. I have the Teric dive watch with the blue bezel. I wear it almost daily and I love it. I was considering the new Garmin because of all the non diving features I would use. You guys saved me a ton of money because of your review. I would have used that watch once and only once. The sound that the transponder makes would drive me insane. Every time I g on a dive, I look to see if anyone is using that watch so I can stay as far away from them as possible. Thank you for your honest reviews. I know how much money some of these companies will pay a channel like yours for a guaranteed “positive“ review. To bring in a little extra money, you guys may wanna consider doing sponsored videos for products you like as long as they allow you to make it clear it’s sponsored. Can’t wait for the end of July.
As a diver, it would be nice to be able to speak to your buddy sometimes. I get your opinion of wanting it to be quiet and peaceful, but not everyone feels that way. Same thing as riding a motorcycle, it’s cool to be able to talk to your buddies when in a group ride with in helmet comms.
there was something that looked a lot like that 25 years ago. the 2 plastic tabs broke allot , was very uncomfortable and sounded like crap. also ended up with a lot of water in your mouth.
Nice Shirt :) And he is a ventriloquist :O
Question , What are the rules for watching copy right material meaning how can reaction videos also show others content when you are indeed making money off the video also? Asking as I am interested in doing reaction videos in the future.
Most reaction videos don’t make money, due to copyright.
I use full face mask with comms for work and it is great because you are not biting down to keep your reg in your mouth and it makes it easier to talk, but when I'm on my own time diving with friend we are out there to enjoy the dive! You can to topside!
I wonder how many people consider that one of the main attractions of diving is that "no one is talking!".
I’ll stick to messaging pre set prompts on my garmin mk3i for now
Well, I love honest reviews, even though I don't dive...😎 Gus, your transformation is incredible, I can't believe how good you look, with the weight loss and everything....keep it up buddy, be well, good health.....😎
Awesome vid!
1. SHARING IS AN ISSUE. 2. WHAT HAPPENS IF YOU THROW UP IN IT.
Boy I bet those sponsors were pissed
😂😂
Bro lost some weight
That was actually pretty brave from the company to send this thing to be destroyed by Gus! 😂
Well, they sent it because they knew they would get an honest review in return. That's not always the case with UA-cam channels and content creators.
Used a similar mouth cup with early Divelink comms (late 90s) not very comfortable a prone to causing free flows , seems to be a remake of it
Make a review please about your thoughts regarding Apple Watch Ultra as dive computer
I wouldn’t use Apple Watch. Get a garmin, shearwater or mares
Terrible news dude, dive gear already looks goofy to non-divers.
Looks like underwater coms from wish
Holy crap!!! You’d need to carry a “Spare Air” if you needed to clear that bad boy more than two or three times!!! 😂
I'm a bit new to diving, but because I'm recently trained, there's an issue that I'm more recently familiar with that you didn't seem to address- the 'dead air' space that this adds. I know it's a big deal in full-face masks like the snorkeling ones that have been implicated in some deaths. I understand that a normal snorkel introduces more. That thing looks like it couldn't help but add more, and raise the risk of CO2 issues.
I can just imagine someone taking the reg and pulling your mask off, or at least flooding it about a second later. But why have just one emergency when you can have two? It looks unbalanced, it's going to tire your jaw, it wastes gas and it looks like sonic ducting or mulipath are going to be an issue. Clearly not ready for release for sale. And why not start with a full-face mask?
My buddy and I communicate on rebreather by yelling “hooooiiiiiyaaaa” and we echo locate each other 😂😂😂😂then just have conversations really gotta push the words into the dsv lol start it off with a “can I get a hooooiyaaaaa” and repeat
Ooooor just buy a rebreather 👀😂
Did the designers have any experience diving? My jaws ache already just thinking about trying to maintain a hold on that big bulky thing. Also the incomplete water seal would be prone to cause less experienced divers to freak out.
I haven't finished the video yet, but two of my concerns would be work of breathing at depth, and the additional volume that needs to be cleared if the reg falls out of your mouth underwater
This is awesome insight video! I always thought you dont sit in the same room reacting to a video like this! Very cool to see :)
This product is absolutely ridiculous and I laughed when you said „I wouldnt even pay 9 dollars.“ 😂😂
That would basically work great for deco habichats
They’re using yall as free engineering
That’s gotta be some Ai company that’s trying to figure life out 😂
A kirby Morgan coms set is about 130 us dollars. Just saying.
This feels like a product not ready for market.
Bananas!
I always ask, why not learn American sign language? Its useful in so many ways. Like talking across large rooms! Thanks for the new channel.
Requires visual. If someone is around a corner or lost or the water is dark or murky…
requires visuals is true but you do make a great point, american sign language is underrated for a lot of things even beyond diving.
I've heard about dive couples doing this, it would be pretty sweet
the obvouis Answer: Why American Sign language? why not french, german, UK or another? Sing language is different for every country. And you need good Visibility. Even basic Signs like "how much air" are often not easy to see in a Lake with limited visibility. So it is very important to have signs that cant "missread".
The cheapest actual recreational comms setup would be an OTS spectrum with a buddy phone. Which runs $1,339, additionally you will need a second set to speak to another diver OR a comm box topside to speak with your tender. OTS has more powerful wireless comms but they go up in price significantly.
Great review by the way, eventually the technology will get there.
It is a good idea, the challenge is making it work as good as it is advertised. Thank you for your honesty in reviewing this product. I am not impressed by it constantly venting air. -- pass
You can pass the octopus and keep that one in your mouth. It's ridiculous because we never see it. The big cable, just use the amount you need, the rest keep on the boat. The price, yes, not affordable. The PTT, not a big deal. But, if you can't understand what people say in a pool, then it's expensive garbage.
But that's the problem (with passing the octopus), most out of air emergencies end up with the "victim" ripping the regulator of the mouth of the closest diver they find. You don't get a chance to choose which regulator to pass.
To elaborate a bit on the advantages of primary donate: 1) This preempts the likely scenario of having your primary pulled from your mouth anyway by an out-of-gas diver in the incipient stage of panic, who may experience tunnel vision and focus on the immediately apparent source of air: the reg in your mouth. 2) This enables you to preemptively switch to your backup and offer this regulator to another diver at the slightest hint of an impending problem, and then if it turns out to be nothing, to revert to breathing it without having to restow or repackage anything. Similarly, this facilitates conducting gas sharing drills with minimal inconvenience. 3) Donating the regulator that you are breathing ensures that the out of gas diver obtains a working regulator. As the non-distressed diver who is in control and switching to your own backup, you are in a much better frame of mind to deal with a possible fouled, flooded, or otherwise malfunctioning second stage, or a gas delivery interruption as a result of an inadvertently closed valve, than is a distressed diver in need of gas. 4) Donating the primary regulator being breathed ensures that you are donating an appropriate gas for the current depth. While only of concern to technical divers, the possibility of breathing a hypoxic or dangerously hyperoxic gas is a severe risk which may be mitigated by the primary donate ethos. 5) Another technical diving concern, following the primary donate ethos means that donation procedure remains exactly the same regardless of whether one is breathing back gas, or from off-board bottom stage or decompression gases. Having a consistent procedure means that one can train for this to become a conditioned action which does not require much thought to implement, making it safer in an emergency. 6) Donating your primary second stage, when equipped with a long lose, provides some requisite distance between you and a distressed diver whose actions may be unpredictable and potentially dangerous if that distress evolves into full blown panic. 7) A backup or octopus regulator will generally intentionally be a detuned or unbalanced second stage (or optionally, a high performance second stage with cracking pressure and venturi adjustments set to high resistance settings), in order to prevent inadvertent gas loss due either to current or flow (such as when using a DPV) creating a natural venturi across the open mouthpiece, or due to inadvertent contact with the purge button / face. Donating the primary being breathed thus ensures that the distressed diver obtains the easiest breathing regulator, avoiding the possibility of compounding their distress with undue inhalation effort.
First off - Can't fail to notice your "That thing ate that thing" shirt, Gus. Assume Woody has one in pink! Only viewers who watched that particular episode would 'get it' but Woody's comment was hilarious! Blimey, who invented this thing? Surely not a diver (not that I'm one) but the pitfalls/drawbacks are many.... It's complex, not user friendly, cumbersome and doesn't even work. An exxy gimmick!
I'm so glad you pointed this out because I watch on mobile and I wouldn't have noticed the words
I have used professional ultrasonic comms pretty extensively (OTS SSB-2010 and the later OTS Powercom 3000D/S units). The reason that the surface transducer cable is so long is because haloclines and thermoclines will reflect and refract the ultrasonic signal, interfering with reception. The transducer ideally needs to be lowered by the surface crew to the same approximate depth as the transmitting diver(s) to minimize that problem. They are also prone to multipath interference and sensitive to transducer position. Obviously surface units are constrained to open water use. You can do diver-to-diver in overheads, but then there are other considerations which contraindicate comms in most cases. For diver transmission, you can't have anything in the mouth because that will impair intelligibility, and you can't use them deep because helium voice over ultrasonic comms is almost always unintelligible without an expensive descrambler. To use ultrasonic comms you should properly have a FFM with a vocalization space, which implies both proper training on the FFM, and a legitimate need for it which is a threshold that recreational diving rarely meets. Commercial comms are usually hardwire which allows full duplex communication. There are specific scenarios, like SAR, where ultrasonic makes sense, and ultrasonic will always be half-duplex (push-to-talk), but it is difficult to implement that well. There is a reason that the pro units cost thousands of dollars.
this comment should be pinned. excellent dive into the details. the multipath interference was probably also a major contributor to the scrambled voice in the swimming pool - smooth flat surfaces all around, perfect for reflecting sound.
It was brutal but honesty is best. Can’t improve if you don’t know where to improve. Glad you gave honest feedback and I hope they take it and run with it.
"Look Ma! My hand!" I've always been told I should be a hand model 🤣 Man, you can tell that was the end of the week - my voice is almost gone. The best part of that was trying to get you guys to understand what I was saying. Pretty sure Gus and Jonathan both looked at me like I had cotton in my mouth.
Dive talk go deep dive next ?
Can we get a video about erik?
The plastic clips on the side are used by climbers to secure the elastic straps of mountaineering head torches.
When I learned to dive, computers were not that common and were expensive, so I was using a dive watch. Now I use exactly the computer you just showed! However, I bought a dive watch anyway because it reminds me of my youth, and It brings me back beautiful souvenirs of my dive adventures. Thank you
Thanks for the great series. I have also read Andy’s article and it is great but sadly his website is down now so I bought his e book. Quick question. I dive with a Shearwater Tern which does not seem to show me the Surf GF in real time (correct me if I am wrong) so I am going by the GF99 alone. However it seems that I can’t get it to go above 3%. Does it take some time at a particular depth for the new GF99 to compute or does this happen instantaneously? In other words should I just stay for a few moments at a particular depth to see a change in my GF99? Thanks
Me and my dive partner need a cave helmet. We go cave diving in France. The helmet is useless in the cave in my opinion, but the passage in our auberge is 140 cm high and the path to the toilet at night is pitch black. Plus its blocked with dry suits that too to dry. A little. We never got a hit to our heads in the cave, but plenty in our auberge.
