    Lesson #2, now put regulator in yr. mouth and practise same breathing technique on land.

    What you described in the beginning of the video cannot really happen if you are properly weighted. Obviously, you can be negatively buoyant, but to an extent that you "free fall" in the water? Only if you are over-weighted.

    When I first started 2 years ago, I kept asking about my breathing tempo, and I got answers like "you'll get it eventually" from my friends and "Breathe like you're smoking a cigarette" from my instructor (what?) amongst others. This is so much more helpful, just straight numbers,

    My first two dives in fresh water, after years away were exactly as you explained, combined with a LARGE BCD bladder, I ended up with liters of water in my BCD. I didn't lean back to vent from hose or point down to release air from bottom of BCD. This was incredibly helpful - Thank You..

    • @ttb1513
      @ttb1513 10 місяців тому

      You got water in your BCD? How? I thought you could add air or let air out, but the valves never allowed water in.

  • @notroublesjustbubbles2307

    Good advice, with important info. Well presented, too. This video (or one like it) should be shown to every diver who has fewer than 50 logged dives on the way to each dive site.

    do you breathe in through nose exhale mouth?

      you can't inhale with nose with a scuba mask ;)

  • @number6204

    how do you keep your buoyancy level when doing this technique? Wouldn't you go up and down?

    • @saar144
      @saar144 5 місяців тому

      You can’t. But how many times during a dive you need to maintain perfect buoyancy?

  • @MuttonChops24
    @MuttonChops24 3 роки тому

    i get dizzy if i breathe in for 4 seconds and out for 6. seems like im consuming way too much air than necessary.

    • @traydog1257
      @traydog1257 2 роки тому

      Me too. When I focus on my breathing like this I get very lightheaded. Not sure how other people do it

    • @saar144
      @saar144 5 місяців тому

      You should inhale slowly to avoid inhaling too much air.

      @bella.fox66 Рік тому

      Ywa I had my first boat dive and we went over some rocks and I started to rise I tried to get the air out but I was stressing the anxiety I felt was insane I looked at my buddy with pure fear. Luckily we were only at 12m I came up and I was so scared my head was racing. For the rest of the dive I was holding on to rocks scared for my life it would happen again. Thanks to this video ik it's because we rose the air filled

    Patrick I am struggling with not letting any air out of my nose in my mask by accident... I am focusing on breathing through the mouth, but a little bit gets through my nose even if I try. Then my mask fills with water :/ how do I fix this problem

  • @lifebelongstowater203
    @lifebelongstowater203 4 роки тому

    most important is to use "lung BCD", ascent and descent by breath technique, not the BCD......

    *After 2 dives with this BCD〉〉〉 **nub.best/01m0** (and it may be because im new to diving) the only problem i really have with this is the side air bladders. When im at depth they tend to slide up the sides of the strap trapping air into it and not releasing it making it mess with my buoyancy. I'm having to pull them down to my waist and squeezing them to remove the air when trying to descend. I haven't had any other problems with it yet. im going to buy a Velcro strap to help keep them by my side.*
