Communication is key

Just order VIP stickers with your dive shop name on it. Bill's dive shop

What that piss

Which dive computer is that in the video!?

I mean lets be fair. If the amount of people that drive suddenly started diving, the deaths would be insane

Wow❤

Locktight 😂😂😂😂

Golden principal is that not a single problem gets better once your underwater

Just do a weight check skill instead of guessing…

Almost 40 years of tank valves being designed to be fully open, and there are still instructors and dive operators going a quarter turn back. You can imagine my surprise when discovering that there are some types of diving where it's common to have your valves barely open. (This is a weird exception just as a point of interest, if you're open circuit valves must be fully open for safe operation) On CCR it's common to have a valve only a quarter turn open. As you're not breathing directly from the regulator supplying gas. Often on an MCCR with o2 it's just a flick of the wrist as you have an orifice or needle valve that constantly trickles into the loop at a fairly low volume. With Dilluant It's common to have a tank valve a little more open, but having it fully open isn't necessary. As a free flow on a rebreather can quickly become catastrophic, being able to shut down a cylinder quickly is a virtue. It's still a contentious technique, it's not unlikely you will hear very strong opinions in rebreather circles.

I understand the argument that regulators are life support equipment, but divers shouldn't be afraid of performing basic maintenance on their equipment. I think most people would agree that knowing how to replace an o-ring in a yoke valve is something all divers should know how to do. If you agree with that statement, then clearly a completely hands off approach isn't what you believe. At least not absolutely. Realistically I think it's a matter of varying degrees based on what can be done safely in a practical setting. Choosing between changing a broken air spool on a dive boat or calling the dive is certainly something to discuss. That being said, it's a common failure that with some practical knowledge and skill can be done with minimal effort. Same with port cover o-rings, or simply having additional port covers. It's not as if a highly skilled tech hasn't inadvertently pinched an o-ring on a port cover that is only discovered weeks or months later. Yes, there are absolutely examples of people using Teflon tape, adding red locktight on a hose, or torquing the hell out of a hose fitting.. if anything that shows that there is an education gap, and even reluctance to give basic instruction for basic maintenance. I'm not saying that every open water diver should have an IP gauge on hand, or a sonic cleaner at home, but there are plenty of procedures like replacing a broken hose, or changing a mouthpiece that shouldn't be seen as something only to be approched by a priestly class of techs that watched a 2 hour power point at DEMA.

Thank you steve zissou.

Simply print a sticker with a made up dive shop nane...

Remember attending vrs mpa

Kindred spirit ✌🏻

Their regulators are actually produced by Yuhsin, which is a well known OEM/ODM manufacture for producing high quality regulators. NEX neither design or manufacture the parts themselves. It is just a rebrand regs from Taiwan.

With the shop on this one. Did you present your cert? Attempt to pre-negotiate? If not, you are a guy that bought generic stickers on kine and put them at risk.

Can you make a video with proof? Maybe like putting xy lbs of led on a 7mm suit at 3 and at 30m? And also for 5 and 3mm

And the loss of a possible lawsuit. Go riddance to a bad customer.

The work you do in the industry and the information you provide is appreciated more than you know. Luckily, i found your channel right when my dive career started and im a better diver for it. Thanks Kenny, keep doing what you do brother

My diving instructor always makes his students get their suit on and hang out in the water for at least 10 min before experimenting with different weights. Great advice!

I believe what you’re tell us is true. But at the first beginning of dive into seawater, your wet suit will not been saturated, so the thicker wet suit need more weight as you dive into the water. In my experience I need more weight, 3 kg, when I wear 5mm wet suit and wing bcd. But if I take a side mount dive I have to get 5kg more.

Well. Depends on the quality of suit. Some suits soak during the first day. Some need up a couple more dives. But I am not worried. Everyone knows their suit. 1.5 kilo maybe to little. It's more like 2.5 from my experience. But I am trying 2 next chance

Looks a lot more expensive than reputable brands...

😂🤮🤢

Oh, look at those nice shoes AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH

Not sure where he gets his facts from, but as someone that dives a 7mm wetsuit most of the year, that is not my experience. According to this logic, I could take off my 7mm immediately after a dive, drop it in the rinse tank and keep it fully submerged with a 2lb weight… that does not happen, not on the surface. At depth, I can see how compression will reduce the buoyancy of the suit to way less than on the surface (that’s why we need a BC), but not at the start of a dive, I’m not buying that. The sponge analogy doesn’t hold water (pun intended) because the sponge is open cell foam whereas neoprene is closed cell, the only part of a wetsuit that saturates is the lining.

Makes sense! Good stuff

Love you videos, keep up the good work

A dive shop name? Real profound in-depth interviewing skills you goof

Imagine if you will, a Navy diver trained well beyond any hotel pool boy having to pay someone to certify him to dive? That’s the way it works, strange huh?

His certification of training is probably fake too!

He can buy his own dive shop and insure it and fill all the non certified tanks he wants. Sounds like a liberal Democrat.

His certification probably fake too! 😅😂

🕷🕷🕷 "Michael you're the reason people hate us!" "Lol, I know"

This was the first dive resort that I visited when I first certified as a diver. This was back when Amy still owned it. I had almost forgotten how great the diving was there till I saw this video. I'm definitely going to see about returning.

Sounds to me like you should get a machine and fill your own tanks. You're gonna tell me you're not allowed to do that? And I'm gonna ask why not. You don't need to tell anybody; just do it.

Means the tank is safe to fill because it has been inspected and tested

NEX is tooooo expensive

Nope. Cylinder is a shape. Any pipe is a cylinder. So tank or bottle is correct

Ummmm is that forrest galante

This is gross

Then they wonder why badly filled tanks kill dozens of divers ever year. If bubba gonna fill his own tri-mix, he's going to hopelessly fuck it up and then you have a completely avoidable disaster just because some pussy dive shop won't refill a non-stickered tank. Liability laws in the death defying hobbys have directly led to the deaths of multiple people. If you are directly putting your body on the line for a hobby, then you should be fully and legally responsible for your own life, not a dive shop.

Always do 1/8th turn back from fully open. Recently a dive guide told me it was wrong and then his fully opened valve got stuck and the tank had to be fully emptied to get the reg off. He’s going to do it the old way from now on. LOL.

Fill your own tanks

尿尿😊😅

i use them for almost a year now, 2-3 dives a day 6 days a week from dsd courses to down 60mt dive never failed me and breath like a charm...well done to NEX
