Useful Hand Signals | Dive Brief |

[@Yggdrasil42]

A favorite of mine that many people don't seem to know is the one-handed version for "what's your gas pressure?". The common two-handed version is tapping the palm of one hand with two fingers of the other hand. The one-handed variant is simply the "give me" sign: flat hand, palm up, curl your fingers (except your thumb) towards your palm and uncurl them. Repeat two times.

Great clip...sending to all my friends!

These are great. The cut sign is also used to end a drill. Starting a drill is either drilling your index finger into your cheek. (One handed, think of a dentist) or drilling your index finger into the palm of your other hand (two-handed).

Very useful video! Most of the time people teach you the same ten hand signals you already know since your OWD.

#askmark is advanced open water a pre- requisite for progression to other courses? Or can I just cherry pick specialities after completing open water

[@david.seholm]

tapping on the top of the left wrist with the pointer and middle finger of right hand is used to ask what time it is or how much time is left...

Great - i think entanglement signal (crossed fingers) might be difficult to make or read in the case of thick or black neoprene gloves. Any alternatives for that?

[@leopoldbloom4835]

You can put your hands together with your thumbs and index fingers touching and then move your hands apart as if you were measuring a line. It‘s a two hand signal, but you can do is with thick gloves.

thanks LB. Like describing the cause.
