Scuba Diving Surface Marker Buoy Deploy

Scuba Diving Surface Marker Buoy Deploy is part of essential skills needed for safe and sound scuba diving experience. At any moment in time, a diver may have to deploy a Surface Marker Buoy aka SMB to signal the surface team of a potential problem or to simply mark the location of the divers.
This skill must be executed while keeping an eye contact with all team members as well as a good trim and buoyancy control during the ascent phase of the dive.
At Essential Scuba Training we help YOU become a better diver and be a master of your own dive.

When you use an SMB, you ascend in a horizontal position correct?

@malabou75 hi there and thanks for watching my video - yes, you must keep horizontal trim in the water column, this helps keep a better preparedness in case of team emergency, communication and during the off-gassing phase of the dive (ascent) keeping the whole body at the same ambient pressure helps for a better Nitrogen elimination.

how do u use the double ender clip to stop the line from running at the end?

[EssentialScuba]

@caledfwlch thanks for your question - I do this by simply clipping it to one of the wholes on the spool. By grabbing the line (in the double ender) and clipping to the spool, it locks the itself!
