PART 3 ALTERNATIVE BOAT JUMPS IN SIDEMOUNT (DOUBLEENDERS SERIES)

www.sidemountsilesia.pl
Here is Part 3 of my Double Enders Series called „Alternative Boat Jumps”.
If you decide to watch it, please make sure you have watched Part 2 of the series as Part 3 is a suplement to the previous episode.
Chapter 1 deals with jumping in with both cylinders attached to the harness with double enders. Both inflator hoses are connected and LP hoses routed around the neck. The cylinder boltsnaps are NOT attached neither are the bungee loops. This allows more freedom of movement while walking plus you can put your fins on just prior to the jump. This is one of my favourite ways, to be honest.
Once in the water I either complete the attachment still being on the surface in the way shown or in case I want to descend directly I can easily do it under water. Thanks to the double enders my hands are free to carry out the task. In the video I have deliberately inserted footage from Egypt (salt water) and my quarry (fresh water) so that you can see the difference in the alu cylinders conduct. Still a well trained diver should not have problems with diving even with the cylinders vertical until he/she completes the attachment.
Chapter 2 deals with the left cylinder attached the way shown in chapter 1 but the right cylinder is only hooked to the right shoulder d-ring with a double ender. This is the way I use when I do not wish to waste time on the boat for the right cylinder attachment. Again, to complete the donning and hose connection you can either do it on the surface of the water or in mid-water. (but this time dry suit divers mind you!!! your dry suit is not powered so stay at a reasonable depth). FYI in order to shorten the video length I cut the part of connecting the left but obviously, it was shown in Chapter 2.
It needs to be said that both ways from both chapters work perfect on small boats and ribs. You can even put the cylinders on your lap!:).
I hope this will come in handy and I wish you all safe dives.
