  • Good Dive Buddy...Saved Him From An AGE...

  • Free hanging Octo and SPG...

  • nothing that more and better training can't help. Learn your gear and use your buddy, just like you learn in basic open water training!!!!

  • @masluxx I'm really sorry but I'm a beginer so I just dive at 10 meters depth max so I can't answer but thanks :-)

  • @Clemgoff very likely, maybe try barrowing or renting a diffrent regulator to see? I am curiuos, you do turn the valve on the tank all the way till it stops then back towards closed 1/2 a turn no? For if you do not open the valve on the tank all the way when then when pressure in it lowers this sort of thing will happen?

  • @masluxx sorry i could not respond earlier but everytime i dive, it happens to me ? i dive evrytime with the same regulator so maybe it has a problem... I don't know but I'm still alive !!!

  • @Clemgoff yea i have had that 'noise' happen once, that was becuase after i cracked the valve to 'charged' my BC, i got distracted and i forgot to open the valve on the tank the rest of the way. so, at high pressure +3kpsi i had good flow but it was severly restricked in a rather sudden fashion at some point around 2.9kpsi. That sounds very simular to what happened to me also, a very low flow/hard sucking by the diver causing a weasing whisling sound.

  • dude turn the valve on your tank open more, or change to your octopus, or hand signal to your buddy for his octopus, or hand signal to buddy breath, or slowly accend while doing one or all of the pleviuos but do NOT ever jet the the surface like that. By noting the color of the light, you could not be in very deep water and you have plenty plenty plenty of time to do one or all of the previuos. If you paniced liek that in a cave or wreck dive with silt you verly likey could kill everyone .

  • at the end there's a strange noise when he breathes. I got the same noise !

  • @1101111010101101 With a bolt ascent, you surface faster then the pressure you've introduced to your middle ear (by equalizing on descent) can return to the surface pressure, pushing out on the eardrum (going down the water pushes in)

    You can have ear issues with any change in pressure, ascent or descent.
