Good tips! I’ll look for a shirt like yours with extra zipper compartments to distribute my weights more evenly.
One of the things I tell people that's great about diving is hearing your breathing and and doing it slowly. It's like meditating, and feels great when you come out. Which is true (just for me?), but it's my way of coaching would-be buddies to breathe slow. I really do breathe slow like an air mantra because it is relaxing and centring. I've had some hairy moments underwater (eg running out of air at 30M with no buddy in sight) but never panicked, and I think that's partly because of this thing with the meditative breathing.
Thank you for the tips. Helped me alot
This has always been my problem, I've got big lungs an when I get really active they start working really good as in, "gas guzzler"! So I must train myself to relax more an exert less energy, an plan dives so I'm going with currents an not fighting them! Actually, making dives better for me, as well as longer!
I'm the same!
You mention that when you go up , when checking your SPG, you need to deflate your BCD. I think it also help to try to “micro” adjust your buoyancy by breathing out to go a bit down and in to go a bit up. Of course, this only works with Open Circuit.
Good tips...plz do a video on proper finning techniques😊
Also...stay in shape
Great tip!! 👌🏻
Now I have to wait for the opportunity to say "Now, the mayhem is complete"
Stay warm.
I always use my snorkel when on the surface. If I’m the first in the water and waiting for everyone else. Helps calm my breathing without sucking gas from my cylinder.
Yes.
Dont panic and swim slow. 😇.. When I am in Oostvoorne with no visibility my air is gone in minutes 😂. And I am a turtle underwater.. When I am chilled I hardly fin and slowly moving and enjoying the view. Could you make tutorial doing frog kick, turning with fins only and moving backwards.
We have video's about the frog kick on the planning but don't have acces to water or dive gear at the moment sadly. So the video's are coming but we just have to wait until all of this blows over. 😷
50ft Below perhaps its easier to explain above water first so the movement is better?
What Mares suit are you wearing 2:49?
Don't task load ... keep dive objectives simple ? and don't dive very low vis ..... keeping your buddy in sight takes just that little extra bit of effort ......Why ever dive very low vis ? Well for one it's a good test and a refresher for your navigation skills ...... Right or wrong ?
You are right Philip!!
out with the bad air...in with the. ......
gooooooooddddddd 😆
Easy, don't breath as hard as you think you need to. I do this each new dive season an while not comfortable on the first couple of dives, it works. It's so easy, and tempting, to gulp air. My far lighter partner gets through her air more than twice my rate and we often end dives sharing my air. It's all a bit of a joke between our group.
Lol that fucking shirt…
Why so many zippers on your t-shirt? :P

Nice video. Relaxing is the key to breathing. I love the floating meditation feeling I get when diving. @Sailingandscuba
