Shiiat! This is the only video in the world that shows how to don sidemount using different methods (except the paid version of Steve Marty). I also like the right hose arrangement which makes it easy to deploy when ready. Thanks @tmichura for sharing this and all the "how to" videos. I picked up a lot from them. Keep them coming.
As a new sidemounter this series of videos is awesome! Must have watched a good 5 times now. Thanks for taking the time to make them and help us all out. More soon hopefully.
Thank you so much for these videos! Well made and very good instructions and different ways to enter the water. Learned so much from these three part video. Keep em coming your videos are much appreciated 👌
Very impressed to your video I think you tied the double snap bolt with string, which is connect the between tank and D-ring. Can I know how to make it? Thank you
Let me think... when they are empty it is better not jump into the water unless you are asking me what happens when they get empty under water while you are diving them. As far as my knowledge goes when they are empty you have no gas to breathe and need to surface or you drown.
Well done video, but I don't see the point in side-mounting on a boat. I rarely see it happen and when it does happen (typically smaller cylinders for CCR) all of the cylinders are already attached and the bands are put in on during the descend. There's no time to futz around with gear near the surface when you're hot dropping onto a wreck, at least for a technical dive. If the goal is to see a reef, well... then side-mount is completely unnecessary. It's really a specialized tool used in cave diving, but the fad has spread everywhere. BM doubles are better for those who aren't doing penetrations requiring full bottle dismount (these are super advanced and the most extreme of dives).
It definitely isn't. Sidemount was born out of necessity in cave diving. That's it becoming more common in open water diving means it's become mature. Like any configuration, you can make it look easy or hard. A good instructor really helps in my experience, but no one is forcing you to hire one. Do it yourself if you prefer.
Side mount is DEFINITELY so much easier and such a “tighter” configuration of equipment. It’s why most sidemount divers ONLY use BM when they have to, such as teaching an open water or recreational certification class because that’s what the students are in...
@@Yggdrasil42 it's definitely not common in open water diving and completely unnecessary. Very useful in a *certain* cave environments, but we don't jump off boats into caves.

我太喜欢这个系列的视频了，我看了至少10遍，学到了非常多的东西。i really like this video （part3 and part2） i do not need listen English，only watch，
This was really helpful over Christmas. It was the first time I did giant stride entries with SM. Thanks.
Ale miło się patrzy na takiego rzemieślnika pod wodą!
Szanuję!
Dziekuję!!!

Really good skills and very informative , I have learnt some new skills to try on my next trip...thanks
Very impressed to your video

Can I know how to make it?
Thank you
A ja dopiero zaczynam sidemount-a. Pozdrawiam. Fajny filmik👌🤝
I get a lot of ideas from those, thank You!
Would you mind making a short video showing how you attach the top bolt snap ? Thank you
Thank you!
i saw a usual bolt snap (instead ur doubleender) holding on valve by bungee, which in water just clipped of from D-ring, and he stay on bungee.
Wonderful buoyancy
My question is what happens when those aluminum eighties are empty and are floating like corks

You... adjust them.
Like on any other sidemount rig.
Thank you Tomasz I'd like your Technics
where do i get those triple space divided d rings
Your frog kick is very narrow
It's very interesting.

'I rarely see it happen'
Thankfully we humans aren't omniscient.
It's all about how can I make easy things seem difficult..... Or how to sell another course....
