ISE Basic Skill using recreational configuration

[@mickie2412]

Your control in the water is amazing

[@mikes9963]

The arm reach to the single tank valve is truly impressive!!

[@siltlessdeepsea2921]

Inner Space Explorers Will Rock The Diving World! Oh yeah!

[@ChatdeauX]

This video is perfect! The best exemple of what we should do in REC ^^

[@diveinstructordaniel1095]

Könnte ich den ganzen Tag zuschauen. Crazy skill. Ich hab definitiv das richtige Vorbild 👌

[@FromGamingwithLove0456]

Nothing really to add but I do watch these videos with great interest since both the videos and your comments below are enormously insightful. A friend of mine and I have been getting back into the water after a pretty long hiatus and trying to keep up with the trends is like trying to keep a desktop computer up to date. With that said a couple of resounding messages come through- dive with what you're comfortable with- but consider the impact of your choices to your safety and that of your buddy so that you can be prepared to use YOUR setup (the one the diver is using) in an emergency. While I'm not tech rated by any stretch, I do find the simplistic, reliable and compact systems in your basic rigs to be advantageous for a number of very practical reasons so as I make my adjustments I do enjoy watching your videos so I can practice my routines with your methods demonstrated in videos like this one. Certainly any smart diver will consider your techniques tools for the tool box that can be used to replace, integrate or supplement their other techniques. I'm working through an independent / solo diver program... any personal insights about solo diving experiences that might not be offered in the material? Thank you again for all your videos- shifting or otherwise!

[@InnerSpace_Explorers]

Hi Eno, thanks! This would be a VERY long message. Therfore there will be a video on this topic within the next 2-3 weeks.

[@FromGamingwithLove0456]

That's what I was hoping for!

[@triman500]

Makes it look so simple....

[@knorke3642]

great show of skills here, beautifully executed

[@diveinstructordaniel1095]

Finished my 18. dive today and thanks to you everyone thinks I’m lieing 😂😂 im using your techniques on recreational equipment. My buoyancy and trim was on point, I looked better then the guide 🙈 thanks for sharing your awesome knowledge ♥️ cant wait do do my BoE and cavern license with you hopefully next year

[@IncendiaHL]

Same here dude! I had pretty much perfect trim the moment I jumped in water, just from watching the right stuff on youtube. Getting it right from the start is priceless! Now go get some dives, because some things are only learnt through experience.

[@danieltablazon4930]

Mad respect for mad skills display!

[@firstaidherveybay]

thank you all information is good for new divers looks like underwater communication is big now

[@mikeausmunchen4211]

Thank you for this video. It makes very transparent, what skills to learn, in wich quality.

[@phgachoud]

just amazing!

[@pasasbirro2369]

Great video!!!!! But, I don’t see if you use a weight belt…. Are you use it???

[@houphad]

Hi... thnx for all the vids! Question about Weights System in Recreational DIR Single Config. Does the concept of quick release apply? Is it possible to put a weight belt if wearing Single Wing? Is it necessary or no...

[@Fummelkrake1]

Hi! Love the videos, really good scuba skills! Can you tell me what kind of thigh bags you are using? I thought i have seen the apeks diving shorts with bags? If not, could you recommend a Thigh bag for storage of wetnotes, reel, etc? Thank you very much in advance!

[@WadeAbout]

Hi. Another great video. At 4:10 or so your diver is out of gas. They remove their reg before receiving an alternate. Is that correct ?

[@InnerSpace_Explorers]

Yes. focus is on the receiver. the donator took a breath befor donating and has PLENTY of time to get the backup that is right underneath the chin - even without hands that is possible. So Eyeconatct - donate - make sure receiver is ok, think of ourself again :-)

[@davestadnik8739]

Should long hose be 5’ or 7’. Or personal preference? I’m setting up a new system now 👍

[@Bengoesscubadiving]

7

[@louis840]

Hi great video, however reg swaping with a single hand might be useful at a tec level

[@JonasEspelita]

I've seen it done with no hands 😂

[@louis840]

@@JonasEspelita yes true, the necklace has to be short enough so that it is possible to swap to the short hose reg with no hand, if needed in a tight restriction giving problem. But it is only important for explorers

[@LarsDennert]

You should look above you before inflating the SMB to check for obstructions like other divers, snorkelers and boat propellers.

[@mariaheidemann1]

hello! thank you for the video. i was just wondering: when you take the mask off.... almost looks like you are not clearing it the usual way we recreational divers do... like breathing out strong through the nose to get the water out while opening the mask a bit. and: what depth are you and where did you make the video? location? thanks a lot in advance!

[@johnabardenhagenjr1119]

use right hand on SMB free left hand for buoyancy control.

[@InnerSpace_Explorers]

No, check the smb video. There is a concept behind the way its done

[@joec.743]

whats benefit of 7 foot hose on reg? do you give that to a person in need of you Octopus and you use the short one?

[@ChrisEpler]

Idea is that someone out of air may panic as they approach you out of breath and simply GRAB the one in your mouth, you then just switch to your short hose below your chin. It's a logical assumption and provides a nice hose length to allow comfortable space once the out of air diver calms down and also allows you to go single file through narrow passages.

[@desmondkanmr]

Hello!What is the fins you use?

[@kylegordon5717]

Could you do a video on the reel and SMB configuration used in this video?

[@InnerSpace_Explorers]

have a look here - hope this helps: kzbin.info/www/bejne/mqCVlHlngNChqbs

[@3457james]

hi, I was wondering for the deco, I notice u have a dive computer, is it in gauge mode? and when you were writing in your book during the stop, do you plan your dives ahead or do you use ratio deco or deco "on the fly"? wondering what ISE philosophy for deco is

[@Androbus131]

Oh yeah!

[@lorraineoliver4942]

What type of torch strap do you use?

[@raulburgos9615]

Working on my Boyanci to

[@renepetterson5793]

Just a curiosity. Why not watch for IP drop when testbreathing? Yes the tank valve is verified but still. Good to know? Presenting the longhose why not present is as it is donated. Mouthpiece pointing forward and hand on hose. No practical application but it looks better J

[@YrarcOrg73]

IP drop won't necessarily tell you if the tank valve is open part way. You will only find out deeper and when the tank pressure drops. I know from experience: at 20m and 130 bar I felt increased resistance at the end of each breath. When I looked at my gauge I noticed it dropped to zero then returned to 130 bar. That didn't not happen at 200 bar tank pressure on the surface.The valve was open about 1 turn, after I trusted had another person to open it for me. Fortunately I realized what had happened and was able to continue the dive without further incident.

[@IJ_uk]

At 5:30 and 9:00 you remove your primary light and use a double ended bolt snap rather than the bolt snap which is already attached to the light. Why is it done in this way?

[@InnerSpace_Explorers]

Hi Ian, when I would use the fixed Boltsnap the light would shine forward and blind my partner. With the little loop on the cable and a double ender, the light shines down - I have light to work and no blinding will happen. We cal it "temporary storage" I also use this when i write in my notes etc.

[@IJ_uk]

That's a really good thing for me to think about with my new setup. Thanks for your quick reply and great videos.

[@mapers]

CoastalDevelopment - InnerSpace Explorers - ISE

[@MickFriis]

That makes really good sense ... You should really narrate these videos with information, tips and so on.. That would be way more informative and entertaining than the music ! Otherwise great videos! I've learned a lot from you guys.

[@PROSTO4Tabal]

scubapro a700 ahhh nice regulator, I am still using it in 2021

[@saidabimelec8506]

i just wonder if the hose could strangle you if it gets tangled and how long is it. got me interested in the long hose round neck configuration

[@InnerSpace_Explorers]

+Said Abimelec Hi Said, thanks for your comment. If your first and second stage is proper configured strangling should not happen. For more information please take a look at this video. There you can see how a regulator should be configured. kzbin.info/www/bejne/n3KTgoKnfJato80

[@MrNotebookguy]

+Said Abimelec The answer is NO it is a lot safer that way. You probably cannot see how it is done on the video. You should be properly trained for it by the people like ISE . Do not try to do it on your own

[@ChrisEpler]

In a rec setting without a canister light you'll just need to manage your hose by keeping it tucked away in waist area, that's the most problem I've had, it just floating up a little but it's easily corrected.

[@gradyboger382]

Ok this might be stupid but I don’t get how you ascend. You don’t touch your bc and you can’t be finning to the surface because you still have horizontal trim... It’s pretty cool. I hope I’m not missing something obvious

[@kmart43210]

Just take a larger breath than usual and let it out slowly and you will naturally ascend due to the added buoyancy. No need to fin!

[@MickFriis]

Like Kyle said :)

[@phgachoud]

actually, you have to remove air ascending, the rest is your respiration which controls your boyency

[@MickFriis]

@@phgachoud i was not the one asking the question :) i just answered it along with Kyle

[@johnykparkjohn]

Hello, what is the smb you use..?

[@InnerSpace_Explorers]

HI John, good question, long time ago :-) I think it was a Halcyon 3.3 ft cosed SMB.

[@hoyerdiving9974]

What are you using to keep your secondary torch in position, besides the attachment to the left chest D-ring?

[@ts440s]

He's using para cord.

[@JFMNorwich2013]

When using a light with the belt mounted battery, is there a reason you have the cable going across your body to the opposite hand? Personal preference?

[@InnerSpace_Explorers]

Hi. This is because the entire setup is a system - everything works together. On the left side I have the stage (when I have stages) so the light canister goes on the right side. My instrument is right as I use my left hand for bouyancy control. Furthermore my right hand is the one I need to work and donate. So the light goes left.

[@PROSTO4Tabal]

You're good guys, but I am not a big fan of giving your primary in out of air situation, It doubles the risk as you have to find yourself too (the octopus). What about if it fails you or you're in tight gap cave diving...

[@Robert_H_Diver]

Then you’ve got 2 full lungs of air, can calm your buddy down and if your secondary reg is total shit you can buddy breathe. If your buddy grabs your octo and it doesn’t work…you’re going to have a panicked diver and you don’t want that….

[@sidemountsarge]

Ah yes, restriction in cave diving applied to recreational configurations. Not like the long hose was devised so 2 divers could share gas whilst exiting from a right spot in single file, oh wait, it was. The backup regulator is on a necklace, with the correct hose length and sized necklace it sits under your chin. 1.) Donate gas 2.) Once regulator has reached your buddy/team members mouth, insert backup. This should take less than 5 seconds. As opposed to having to look for a regulator on your person that you cannot confirm a.) is in the place you put it if it's held in a plastic clip/hose holder, and b.) if it's working. That said, if you're cave diving you should have redundant gas source(s).

[@seashepherd64]

you take the pleasure out of diving, you should relax..... diving is a pleasure activity

[@Robert_H_Diver]

He’s going over skill…wtf are you talking about.

[@sidemountsarge]

Having a rock solid skillset allows you to actually enjoy diving.

[@MegaEpicLlama]

How is having solid technical control going to remove pleasure?
