Lots of various types of compasses out there. I always have one in my dive bag, you should too.

Eric WOW, great idea….. nah I hate that click bait stuff…..actually I do use the, ‘find a pot of gold’ analogy when I’m teaching scuba courses, it’s just natural for me… Thanks for your comments !

I appreciate that!
Nice, I use my compass attached to the SPG, I check it frequently during dives, especially when it’s at a site I don’t know well.

Thanks Larry for your comment, I always enjoy hearing how folks use their dive gear...
Nice Information. Thank you. I am not sure my kick cycle is accurate. I notice that when I am slowly swimming and when I suddenly stop kicking, I will glide three or four feet before stopping. I use a Scubapro Classic BCD and am perfectly buoyant.

Thanks for your note Peak, I suggest identify an underwater object or objects, move beyond it on one end begin your kicks as you reach it and count as you swim along or between it/them. Stop counting as you reach/pass the end. Try not to use a length such as a pool end to end. In a 50 yard pool use the middle 25 yards. Repeat this 4 times and figure out the average number of kicks.

Hey Peak, so that's why you make 4 passes over a given distance and divide the average number of KC's into the distance.... Gliding does not count of course.. Thanks for your comment Regards Bob C
Visual Aids like actually showing the lesson instead of just explaining it would be better...just saying

Thanks John, The purpose here is not to actually teach the course but to, like you said just explain the basics. So much more fun to take this course in person. Thanks for your comment. Bob C
What the heck are you blabbering on about with your counter, wingspan, and kick-cycles?
