Fantastic video - it brought back a lot of memories of when i did this dive 13 years ago! It might be time to go back. It is one of my favourite places I have dived. We did 2 days there and have so many amazing memories. The first descent when you are just SURROUNDED by sharks absolutely everywhere. We saw the aquarium the first time after doing the swim through of the cave. I still remember how the view took my breath away as we saw the exit of the cave just filled with sharks and even a sea turtle. I also remember swimming down to the entrance and there being wobbegongs in the trench and having to try not to kick them! Yep, definitely time to do this dive again!!

You need to get off your knees, there is zero reasons to be on your knees in the water, pool or open water. tdi/sdi has some pretty good training videos that demonstrate the skills in neutral buoyancy and trim. It’s so important that we start training divers correctly for their safety and enjoyment. This is also a big segment of Dive Talk so check them out too. Have fun diving and be safe.

Great job on the video Mark. I never even heard of an Ornate Butterfly fish. We have a few different varieties of butterfly in Southeast Florida. I See Spot Fin and Four Eyed quite often and recently saw a Banded Butterfly which are pretty rare here.

Thank you mate! Yeah they are so cool the ornate butterflyfish. On the Great Barrier Reef we have over 50 different species of butterflyfish. Ah yes I remember the four eyed one quite well from all those years working in the Caribbean. 😊

Hello There , You would consider NOT putting your finger through the spool , safety issue here , if your DSMB gets caught in a moving object (E.G : Boat/ %JetSki ) you would get injured for sure , instead holding it between your finger would be much more safer practice

لما نزلتي لهذا المستوى ، هل حسيتي بالضغط عند اخراج الهواء ( زفير ) ؟
@BlueHorizonDivingАй бұрын
You can feel it slightly. The reality is your air consumption increases at depth (compared to the surface) due to the increased pressure and compression of the air in the cylinder. For example, at 27m it is 3.7ata which means on average you consume 3.7x more air in comparison to the surface.

Best way to get you 2nd stage or your fingers intangle in it. Thanks for the tip but no thanks. I'll keep inflating it by mouth and looking over my head before launching it....

This wouldn’t work very well with this marker as there was no oral inflate option on it. If setup correctly, you will never get your 2nd stage tangled. On our normal dSMB we use the oral inflate option.

The problem here is using a jacket style bcd and a weight belt. If you are renting... In the earlier days i was using rental gear and i could let my heels touch my but whilst my arms are the most straight out position possible. I would still get into a negative trim, even with the weight belt around my ribs. Move slighty forward, then its easier to stay in a neutral trim. Also try to slow down more and more to get used to the feeling Best thing would be to change to a backplate though.
@BlueHorizonDivingАй бұрын
Lots of different ways to adjust bouyancy, some things work differently for different people. I’m glad you found what worked for you, these are just some tips for people who notice they have this issue. I have a back inflation BCD and love it but can still keep trim in rental jacket BCDs and weight belts - practice makes perfect!

Yes and no. Its not only the silicone debinder residue. Its part of it, but not the main reason. The main reason is moisture condensing. The trick is to keep something at the surface of the glass. So overpriced antifog, baby shampoo, dishwasher soap will do a pretty good job. Also spit, but you kinda have to let it dry to make it work best. But this is all useless if you wash the protective layer off with your fingers roght before the dive. Slighty rinse it, but dont run your fingers again over the layer right b4 ur dive. Bonus points if you use reef safe products.
@BlueHorizonDivingАй бұрын
Yep, all true! Those are great ways to prepare a mask before a dive, however they will continue to fog if that initial layer is not removed and that is what this video is about! I use reef safe stream 2 sea defog before a dive and that does the trick for an already prepped mask

Do not clip the spool to your BCD. Check that the area above you is clear before you release. Don't drop the spool. Have a plan to deal with entanglement.

This is the only thing I'm kinda scared of in scuba. I remember going underwater in a pool 6 feet deep and getting bad ear pain when i was young. I didnt used to do any ear pressure balancing back then and that fear of ear paun just stuck long enough that I havent gone underwater ever since. I'm taking a scuba session for the first time in 2 months. Hopefully it goes well.

Absolutely amazing to see so many Grey Nurse Sharks. They were nearly pushed to the brink of extinction in the 70s & 80s. I used to fish just off Wolf Rock 30 years ago & have seen some monsters of the deep out there. In those days it was common to see False Killer Whales & once i was in a friends 17ft boat out there & a giant hammerhead just longer than the boat came & scratched its self along the side spun around in its own body length & angled its giant head down & disappeared in seconds. Not far away at Fraser my buddy & i had a White Pointer approximately 21 foot come right beneath us at the surface while we sat on Indian Head cliffs. Its sharky heaven between those two points.
