The Basics of Controlling Your Buoyancy Ep. 1 | Improve your Buoyancy | Scuba Advice

Спорт

Improving your buoyancy starts with getting the hang of the basics! After you have completed your initial scuba course it's time to become a good scuba diver. Learning how to descend, ascend and swim underwater is key. You will enjoy your dives more and the environment benefits as well.

    Try making a dive where you are intent on moving absolutely as little as possible, as slowly as possible - and on using as little air as possible. Do it for about an hour as a kind of meditation. That will teach you a whole lot about a bunch of different things.

    One thing that many neglect to mention is that buoyancy checks are supposed to be done with a cylinder at reserve pressure, but they are almost always done with a full tank. As such you need to know how much the air in the tank weighs. For the typical aluminum 80 that is 6lbs, so you need to add that on top of the weight needed to achieve neutral buoyancy with a full tank, or else you will struggle on your safety stop at the end of your dive.

    No. When your air cylinder is full it weighs about 5-6 lbs (approximately 2kg) more than when it is empty. Thus if you do a buoyancy check with a full cylinder you need to add that much weight to your weight belt/pockets so that you will be neutral when you are nearly empty. Because when the cylinder is empty that is when you are at your lightest and most buoyant during the dive.

    Thanks. Great buoyancy control demonstrated. Something to aspire to, but as the script says it's not quite that easy to master. Personally I still find it a bit unnnerving to feel my gentle descent accelerating away from me as my wetsuit and other pockets of air compress. Then as my air is getting low, to find it difficult to maintain depth, even with almost no air in my bcd. As the video shows, one thing I've learned is that using the side dump valve is critical to managing an ascent

    Thank you for your nice comment! The level of experience is in the calculator because a novice diver doesn't have the skills of a experienced diver. So two things can happen, a novice diver wil start the descend with full lungs. So you need some more weights. A experienced diver will always empty there lungs before descending. Besides that a novice diver sometimes can't hold his fins still before descending so he will remain on the surface. That is the reason why we include the level of experience in the calculator.

    I have a question for you ... I am a large guy. 6'2" (1.88 meters) and 250 Lbs (113.4 kg). When I wear a full 7mm wetsuit with gloves, hood, and boots, I need 28 Lbs (12.7 kg) of weight to be neutral at the surface with a full tank. I found that adding 2 extra lbs (0.91 Kg) helps for the end of the dive. My problem is that I can not hover. Or stay horizontal. I am all over the place. Could that be weight distribution? I have my weight split into thirds. With 1/3 of my weight in each ditchable pocket, and 1/3 split in half between the trim pockets on my back. I'm using an Aqua Lung Axiom BCD. I'm wondering if that is too much weight in the trim pockets? Any suggestions of what might help? Thanks!!

    I think it has to do with trim. If you can, try to have a buddy go with you to a diving pool, and bring a tank, regulator with long hose and a couple of weights. Does not have to be the full weight you use. In your trunks, submerge yourself in the platform or shallow part of the pool while breathing from the longer hose. Now, with the weights, I'd say 2-3lbs. clasp them with both hands and bring it first to your chest, checking for neutral buoyancy as you move your weights downwards. It works differently for everyone. Your buddy will help you confirm the proper trim.

  • @Yggdrasil42
    @Yggdrasil425 жыл бұрын

    Good video. Correct weighting and then correcting my trim so I could hover horizontally was a big step in better buoyancy control for me, since I stopped moving my fins and hands all the time and could see what effect my lungs and BCD were having. I bought an xDeep sidemount BCD where you can distribute your weights along your spine, which made it easy to get a horizontal trim.

Typically I dive with 40lbs of weight, 14lbs on a weight belt, 10lbs x2 my integrated weight pockets, 3lbs x2 in my trim pockets. Sometimes I sink without weights in the trim pockets, sometimes I need the weight. I'm definitely finding this one of the most challenging bits to my diving. Any suggestions further suggestions would be most welcome.

    If there isn't anything different in the gear you use you should always sink without the trimpockets. Things what might affect this is your breathing pattern. If you are breathing a lot your lungs are filled with are a lot of times and this keeps you a float. So next time try to calm yourself down before descending. It also makes a lot of difference if you are upright or lying down on the surface. The upright position is preferred since this gives you the least buoyancy. Hope the answer helps!

    dharmapunk5 -- I'm in a similar situation to yours. I wear a 7mm "Farmer John" suit (7mm sleeveless jump suit plus 7mm jacket), so I have 14mm total on my torso. When diving in salt water people are shocked...even my instructors -- at how much weight I needed in order to get off the surface. A big problem with all that foam is that it really compresses under pressure, so once I'm below 20 - 30 feet I start sinking like a rock if I don't stay on top of my BCD inflation. Then on ascent the reverse happens and the foam expands, so I have to make sure I'm venting rapidly on the way up. It's a lot of work, but it was the best solution for me for diving in the cold waters of the Seattle area.

    weight checks (descend when lungs empty, float when lungs full at surface) should always be done with a near empty tank......If you do them as shown in the video, with a full tank, at the end of the dive when your tank is low, you will have trouble staying down at 5m for the safety stop and you will be positively buoyant even with an empty BCD.

    Jester Even with a steel tank you need to have the tank near empty. Yes, it’s most likely negatively buoyant even when empty, but since it weighs less and has the same volume, it’s less negatively buoyant when empty, pulling you down less.

    @@Jester-rm9ox even though a steel tank is negatively buoyant, how much it’s negatively buoyant matters. If it becomes slightly less heavy and therefore slightlyyy more buoyant (although still denser than water), you end up impacting your total buoyancy. Science, bruh

    But you also need to consider that a wetsuit saturates during a dive and becomes denser/heavier, because more and more of the air cells inside a wetsuit fill up with water during the course of a dive… so, because of this, you gotta consider that too.

    What I found is, if I’m using a wetsuit and a single Aluminum-80 (standard air) tank, I hop in with a just-got-wet-a-minute-ago wetsuit, and I just add one extra pound with my “full tank of air”, and I’m good to go. And that usually does it for me, i don’t add more weight cuz I know my wetsuit will keep getting heavier/denser/more full of water during the dive. Now- If I’m using a tri- laminate drivesuit, I add the correct amount of extra weight, since trilaminate drysuits don’t really take in any extra water

    You reiterated what you do for descent and ascent you didn’t cover the body mechanics. What you told me is the same thing that I read in the book but what are the body mechanics to actually accomplish these techniques?

    I mean, these skills are all taught at open water as well, right? All the people who took the same class of open water at least got the theory involved in all of these. Just one thing: once a diver is weighted so that he or she goes beneath the surface of the water only on a regular exhale, should't one add 2kg to make up for the weight in air that's not going to be there at the end of a dive? That's what PADI teaches
