    If I’m 15 and I have the paid jr dive license and I want to solo dive in a Florida spring that like 10 meters would that be fine it’s not in a cave just going down to 30ft

    I am now in menopause and feel tired all the time. Plus I stopped physical training. I am a bit nervous to go diving with friends in a few weeks. I remember how heavy the gear was.

    Technically no. But dive shops in general will not rent to divers who plan to solo dive but are not certified.

    Great points. Always good to hear these things again & again over the years. Diving for 52 years. How things have changed and some never do. I do agree with conserving energy/gas but sometimes it is just fun to explore with your partner and actually kick those fins other than a frog kick. I find it frustrating to surface with 800 PSI. My recreational diving trips often include new buddies every dive. Many seem to wander off on their own from the group. Enjoyed this article on safety stops. Good divers always try to be better.

    Is it ever recommended to do a safety stop between bars? Why is a safety stop always at 15ft? Air seems to close to surface. Wouldn’t it be better between 30 and 20ft?

    Sorry you dont need to study archemides, reduce weights Until you dont have enough then add back a little. There will be a little variation for wetsuits and you'll want a little more for shallow dives

  • @addohm
    @addohm16 күн бұрын

    At 4:15 or so, that's not really factual. Regardless of your depth on air, your cylinder mixture is still 21%/~78%. The difference is the uptake. You're increasing the rate at which you're consuming that air. At 10m you're cylinder is still 21% oxygen but you're taking in twice as much. Same for nitrogen.

  • @everythingscuba
    @everythingscuba16 күн бұрын

    I assume you are referring to the section regarding Henry’s Law. While I don’t disagree with your premise that your gas cylinder percentages of oxygen and nitrogen, do not change, and you’re also correct that with increasing depths and increasing pressure, you thus uptake faster…Henry’s Law refers to the fact with increasing pressure there is increasing solubility of gas i.e. more gas will dissolve into tissues for example nitrogen uptake into tissues with increasing pressure. Thanks for watching!

    This video is old but I’m wondering if you could answer a question for me… On your repet table, why are you penalized more (larger RNT values) for shallower dives than deeper dives. You subtract that number from your new NoDeco limit to find your new repet dive time, but the numbers are larger on the left side of table three (shallower repet dive) than the right side (deeper repet dive). It should be the other way around or I’m missing something important. We’re using an older table layout here, but X values are depth, and Y are repet letters.

    Just another additional tip for those who still try to find out their neutral bouyancy. When I teach people I let them stand on their right hand, trying to be horizontal hovering. So they can feel the pressure of their weight or their down force on their right hand. They can feel the difference between inhaling and exhaling. Now they put air into their BCD and they have a feedback on the change. So they usually can estimate when neutral buoyancy is achieved than by laying on the ground or ascending towards the surface. Next step is doing the same with just a finger. So they usually can hover their finger a centimeter above the ground within minutes. I never sold a Perfect Buoyancy course to any of my OWD students so far. ;-)

    I find when we go on diving trips in the tropicals (In my case Philippines ), the DM ignores weight check most of the time. We rush to jump in the water ,descend immediately rushing. Sometime I had ear issues because of that and was forced to ascend many times during the dive. I struggle later with my buoyancy and the DM starts to add more weight or remove some weights during the dive, or sometime shift my tank up or down. I learned from watching you and other youtube channels to check my weights before any dive and I insist on it now. I know now where to place my weights and how much do I need. I also find that during PADI training they don't tell us much about buoancy and weights and that should be addressed. I'm still working on my frog kick now and things are getting better with every additional dive. I now could stay 55 minutes during dives thanks to all your tips about breathing, trim, and weights. That worked well for me. Thks again.

    It had been quite a few years since I dived. Were in the Dominican Republic last week. My 17 yr old daughter had her first open water dive. She was great. I’m usually a bit stressed the first few minutes. The dive master was chewing me out with hand signals to get more parallel and use breathing for buoyancy and not the BCD so much. I eventually got the hang of it. He even clapped underwater eventually. Your video was excellent. I really enjoyed the 2 nd dive and used breathing for the neutral buoyancy joist of things. Excited to do more of it. Thanks, Sam

    Great summary, although I personally would have avoided describing going into a required deco situation as an 'emergency'. I am aware of instances where divers have panicked when they realised they were at or beyond NDL and acted inappropriately, ie bolted for the surface, exactly because they thought it was an emergency. I believe this is something that needs to be highlighted properly. Better to say that you shouldn't exceed your NDL but be aware of what you need to do if it happens and what info your computer will be showing you. As you will know, the RDP does hint at this by including extra stop time as you get toward the boundaries of the table.

  • @everythingscuba

    It’s not a requirement. However, Josh and I both feel that every diver should be nitro certified. Gives you a much better understanding of dive theory and pressure depth relationships. And also gives you a little bit more time underwater enjoying a longer compression limit.

    Thank you for this video. I am doing my Rescue course strongly interested in solo diving. Doing tests in pool and from shore in the next months to ensure buoyancy and trim with a pony stage and so on. I have a disability too so it will be very interesting to see how far I can go with my self sufficiency skills, even out of the water, I have a great instructor too here in Italy 😊

    I have 2 of them and I use 1 on every dive, I put a weight pocket on the strap, of which it is on the other side of the main tank, i had to go to the dive shops with the strap and find the right one. ( 6 pds of weights ) . the way i have it i can release the strap and the pocket is mounted full time. I practed a few times and readjusted things several times. so on a tank switch out i take the pony off first and put it on last.
