In this video I break down all of the little features to look for an a SMB and a dSMB and their best uses.
I had to turn the music down for this version though, it was a tad loud before...

I really love your video's! so much detail that i was looking for! Thank you!

[@shadwabarghash8734]

I love that wave logo, give a cool vibe of a Faction (like in Divergent movie)

[@IncendiaHL]

Oh buoy, what a great channel!

[@SafeDiving]

Ah, Tank You very much

[@stephdefy]

Really love your videos !!! Good vibes from Belgium 😁

I like the fluted DSMBs. They hold air just fine. A heavy boltsnap can keep the open end underwater if you worry about the flute not sealing when not fully inflated. Not a fan of LP inflation. Disconnecting the drysuit and then remembering to connect it back up is too much juggling. Not a fan of breath inflation either. You can't fully inflate a large DSMB on a single lungfull of air unless you do it deep down. And as you said, large DSMBs are better.

Hi Mark, love your video's. Am new to diving so everything is a learn curve for me. Could you do a video on how and where the best places are to keep everything like knife, dsmb, compass and all. I have 2 knifes but still feel silly when i take them, like i'm a commando or something.

[@yangjie07]

LOL, Mark has 5 stars intelligence, charisma and cooking

[@SafeDiving]

I'm Modest too, :P

[@MrDunk66]

Mark. Does it help anyone if your name is printed large on the DSMB?

[@mattvish2591]

quite compressive, still would like to know why you don't like fluted DSMBs, they claim to keep air almost as good as closed ones. Do you use dedicated inflators hose or decouple dry suite/BCD or by mouth? I find anything larger that I can't inflate (50%) on single breath cumbersome. So for large DSMBs i prefer octo (with fluting type) or inflator hose but also don't like really detaching BCD inflator. I'm looking for simply single hand deployment, minimum steps technique. Cheers

"almost" is why I don't like fluted dSMBs. I tend to orally inflate dSMBs unless the surface is particularly rough. The one time I used my drysuit inflator to inflate a dSMB, when you reconnect it shoots a small blast of water into your suit...

[@complicatedmechanics9599]

Sometimes you get almost flaccid sausage at the surface and struggle with inflation at the surface if it became almost invisible. That's why "almost" is a bad thing. Look at this. Is it fast and simple enough? :-) kzbin.info/www/bejne/mqCVlHlngNChqbs

[@rayamis9509]

Nice Logo Mark.

[@fadi9340]

Some specific recommendations would be great otherwise v informative ty

[@BurhanMuntasser]

Great video and great information but the background music is just loud and inappropriate for this type of videos. The music made it difficult to concentrate on listening to the video and following it, get rid of the music please :)

[@rickkinney7830]

I've never used a dsmb. When you are at depth, how do you know when your dsmb has reached the surface, assuming you can't see the surface?

[@jasminlovestheocean8454]

When you launch it, it'll run to the surface, pulling out line from your reel behind it all the way till the surface (unless it fouls on something on the way up - hence always checking above you before you launch it). So, when the reel stops spinning you'll know the buoy is at the surface (or, if you didn't look up, wedged into the butt cheeks of the diver above you).

[@nyax129]

Thanks mark! What happened with the upload this morning haha

[@SafeDiving]

The background music was a tad loud, turned it down a bit on this one

[@nyax129]

And sorry to hear about the simply scuba bud but I always have an extra room on utila!!

[@rapha9125]
