[angpic89]

non si emerge con lo snorkel in bocca

its call slow relax and good technique... if you didnt relaize the more you move around the more co2 you build up and have the uge to breathe .... just some food for thought

[djc4n]

your supposed to put your snorkle in the flips, and your goggles around that, then go back down after one breath and get it back

[acenspades]

really? as a dive master you should be able to do it demonstration quality; which means nice and slow and not flailing around like a tourist...Fail

I would love to have you as a divemaster student. You must be really qualifed to say such remarks or your a complete idiot. Either way I would love to have you as a student. if your qualified, you make my day, if your a complete failure in the water, you make my day. For some reason, I have a feeling that you wouldn't fall in the "super qualifed" category. However, how am I to know.... I say put your money where your mouth is

@time4aloha it took you 17 seconds to doff your gear, sloppily place them on the bottom, and surface. 20 seconds to dive down and don the gear while flailing in the water column. You might have done the skills but you didn't demonstrate it at a professional level. Like i said very sloppy. 20 second breath hold is amateurish and your demonstration is touristy.

Any scuba diver can do these skills.

@acenspades

lol.. first of all the one in the video was a student of mine and I took the video while he was practicing the skill. second of all, as a divemaster, you don't have to do that skill demonstration quality. I as the instructor do however. The divemaster has to do basic skills at demonstration quality, but this particular one he does not. And no not any scuba diver can do this. It doesn't seem that you truly know what the skill is or what you are talking about.

@time4aloha

This skill requires that you ditch your snorkeling gear, surface, dive down, replace all gear, and return to the surface with a clear mask and breathing through your snorkel. If you still have water in your mask, or if you didn't clear you snorkel, you fail. I seriously seriously doubt you have any where near what it takes and no basic scuba diver has to do this skill. This is a divemaster/leadership skill required to demonstrate comfort multitasking while under water.
