How to use a DIVE REEL | BLUE WORLD EXTRA

In this video, Gus Gonzalez, the BlueWorld_plus cave correspondent on loan from ‪@DIVETALK‬ gives us a great introduction to the best practices for the use of reels and spools underwater in caves and wrecks!

Both dive talk and blue world deserve billions of subs. Both channels are educational and entertaining. I mean what else could you ask for ….

@@Navy1977 go underwater and try to find woody. He will hunt you some nice seafood with his octopus arms 🐙

[@TammyBundleballs]

Wow, Gus is looking great!

[@narkedandafraid]

I could listen to both Jonathan and Gus talk all day.

[@BlueWorldplus]

Be careful what you wish for! Put us together for a while and that's all we do!

[@YukonSeanHolland]

We love all the collaboration vieos!! Whoop whoop!

[@ivoryjohnson4662]

Thank you Gus for taking time to show us this tip

[@sjldfilms5126]

Yay!! Hello Gus! Love that you both are working together.

[@Maxsmom13]

Love Gus! Great collab!

[@Murrrrrrp]

Gus!! 💜

[@CubanazoJB]

Nice topic .. Two great cave diver and good friends!!

[@DiveIntoFloridaHomes]

The only thing I'd add to this video is to Jonathan's explanation of swimming out in zero visibility: I was taught that you should confirm the section of line you're "leaving" as you arrive to the placement or wrap, is the same line you "continue down" on the other side of the tie-off, and not a T that you might have missed on the way in (or forgotten was there, or had your cookie be knocked off of, rendering the intersection unrecognizable in zero-vis). You can feel the give if you keep hold of the line you "arrived" on, find the next section, and give them a slight pull back and forth to confirm they are in fact the same line. It definitely slowed down my zero-vis exits in class slightly, but knowing you took the right route is worth a few extra seconds when it could mean the difference between making it out or not.

So informative for such a short & sweet video. Fun! Thanks both!

[@phonorarmedia2864]

I love you both !!!!! KEEP making these Videos!!!

[@DIVETALK]

Wish we lived closer and collaborate more often…unfortunately the Blue World crew loves living in the frozen tundra up north!

[@BlueWorldplus]

Oh we don't love it....

[@sabinedeixler2637]

Great episode! Love both of you channels. Gus is the perfect correspondent. I hope you will make more of these videos!❤

[@ghostface1066]

Woo! Will have to watch after my d&d session. I'm going to put some effort in to practice line laying this summer, I don't do it often enough for it to be second nature yet.

[@MaeveHoward]

Me, who will never ever be found cave diving because of claustrophobia: write that down, write that down!

[@toeticket]

I'd love to see a video on line markers. Because there are regional differences in line markers and placement, what I learned in class in Mexico is different than the way we mark them in Florida.

[@BlueWorldplus]

If you want to start an argument, that's a good thing to discuss!

[@SamPhillipsPT]

Yessss love DiveTalk 🤌🏻

[@jellystar2866]

Very helpful tips!🎉

[@BlueWorldplus]

So glad!

[@chisaquaticvibe6524]

Amazing!

[@sousa1534]

nice to see Jonathan again🤩always nice to watch informative vids, thanks Gus!

[@johnsnake3467]

Great video.

[@5x9dev]

My two favorite dive channels in one! Love it! Can't wait to try out a rebreather in Bonaire this year with y'all. Maybe we even get a chance to watch Jonathan's latest movie there as well!

[@officialdropnation]

👍🏻

[@Dandeb19]

Thank you, you guys are great❤❤

[@stevedenruyter4902]

I love how Jonathan plays along 😅 But for the first tieoff I prefer locking it and going at least 2 times around to make sure.

[@BlueWorldplus]

I wasn't playing along, I was learning!

[@AndreaFlorio]

Thank you!! Finally a new video

[@BlueWorldplus]

Sorry we have been a little slow recently. Hard at work on a new IMAX movie.

[@Mrveescuba]

6:29 well take the spool back wrap around the main line..thank me later the way you passed it there is very difficult in low vis and thick gloves to find it

[@Pnwdive]

What about the primary reel/ tie offs?

[@4850937]

For a permanent line, why not tie each segment with knots?

[@iPeter-ky3zs]

just curious on way out you reel in ur line as you go does it have somekind of tether to you or can it be possible to drop it and your in big trouble

[@BlueWorldplus]

It depends on whether the line you are laying is exploration line that is going to stay in the cave, or it's just a jump line that will be removed. In that case, the last guy out reels it up.
