    You guys literally got no shots at all of the reef. That spot is literally my front yard but I haven’t dove out there yet the footage you showed I didn’t see a single fish except for the hammerhead and I was disappointing until I heard you say that the reef was amazing. At any rate thanks for sharing.

    I have a newbie question here; I’ve just taken the basic Naui freediving course, and there was a lot of talk about, having one’s buddy on the surface while one is diving. When does that rule apply? Mainly for much deeper dives?

  • @konafreedivers3970
    @konafreedivers3970 Жыл бұрын

    It applies for every dive. Your buddy should always be on the surface while you are diving as you never know when you could experience shallow water blackout.
