Wow the ever so beautiful Christine is becoming a regular on the channel 👍. But wait there's a beautiful diving instructor giving us a preview of the first in pool instruction 👍 yesireebob good video

[@TheFisherTwins]

Haha Thank you! 😊

[@ClarkJudah]

Yes, she is. Thanks! Glad you liked it

[@darwalde]

Hey it's me again, the big fat Canadian who joked about being in a "whale watching video" I have a sense of humor about my shape.. but also i have been watching your channel for 50 days. It has helped me stay motivated to take charge of what I put in my body. The fish soup series was sure long but also worth every bit of info and instructions. In the 50 days since I started watching your channel I have lost 45 pounds. Which is amazing to me. I have 80 more pounds to go and when I get there I might have to come down there and do some free diving to celebrate. Thanks for everything and tell Kimber she's a good girl for me.

[@ClarkJudah]

Man, that's amazing and so happy to hear that. That's one of my main motivators for this channel. You lose that wait and come down here and I'll take you out on a trip. We'll make a film about it and help others do the same thing. Thank you for sharing!

[@darwalde]

@@ClarkJudah Thanks for the support. Hopefully this stupid Covid will be over soon so I can come when it's time. Its awesome to hear from you and your team. Keep up the awesome vids and I'll watch every one... I'm still hooked.. haha.. same dad joke there.

[@tspot816]

I love how your Lab is so chill and relaxed and happy to be around her people while on the water. Brings a smile to my face every time. Great videos! Love the diving and the fishing while stuck in -20 F!!!

[@ClarkJudah]

Thank you! Yeah my Kimber is the sweetest!

Loved being here for this! Awesome days!

[@ClarkJudah]

Yes they were! Thanks John

[@zzzxxzzz3248]

Remember , when free diving you don't need a safety stop when going up to the surface . You sure as hell better remember to do a safety stop when you scuba ! Old habits are hard to break ! Thanks for sharing !

[@billw1044]

A safety stop?

[@ClarkJudah]

I did notice that on our first solo dive. We almost floated right to the top as that air expanded.

[@zzzxxzzz3248]

@@billw1044 if you don't stop and let your body equalise about 20 ft from the surface for about 5 minutes , sometimes 2 stops depending on how deep you dive and how long you stay down! The reason is if you don't you could be injured or die from the Bends . Nitrogen Air bubble in your bloodstream and other tissues of your body! If this happens you must get into a recompression chamber (hyperbaric chamber) to save your life or reverse the damage being done !

[@michaelnaglesaltlife]

A musty smell may indicate excessive moisture is present the very first thing you do before inhaling anything out off the tank

[@GarnettM]

Oh I so want to get back into this again , Had everything but the tank till my brother sold the motorhome with everything in the storage compartment not checking it , Buyer must have had a field day finding that stuff .

[@ClarkJudah]

Dang dude. That’s unfortunate

Thanks 👍 Coming soon!

[@rogerheuckeroth7456]

Welcome to club! I was certified back in 1996. Unfortunately, I lost both my dive buddies for a while. One was my son who decided to join the Marine Corps. We will go diving again someday. The other was my best friend who was rear ended while stoped at a red light on a motorcycle and is now a paraplegic. Man a few years ago I was doing over 100 dives a year. This year I've only done about 20. Hoping to get my friend back in the water in the future. Paraplegics can dive with certain accommodations. It will be challenging but rewarding to see him enjoying the underwater world again.

[@ClarkJudah]

Thanks! Good luck on getting you bud back in the water. If he wants it bad enough, I'm sure you guys will make it happen.

[@rogerheuckeroth7456]

@@ClarkJudah Oh he definitely wants it, but he's back in the hospital now. It will probably be another year before we can try.

[@badkarma2202]

Hey Roger, I’m moving to Florida soon and if your not far let’s hook up to do some diving .

[@rogerheuckeroth7456]

@@badkarma2202 I actually live up in Myrtle Beach, SC, but travel to FL often. What part of FL are you moving to?

[@leannecuster1490]

Thats terrific you 2.super you will really get some videos in your scuba adventures and there is so much to learn by experiance that looks like you would have to be really focused. Awesome choice.

[@ClarkJudah]

We plan to mostly freedive but I'm sure we'll fit some scuba in here and there.

[@hongchang9370]

Very nice instruction, I don’t know if I will ever be scuba certified, I am 64yrs, but I am definitely going to be snorkeling and freediving this summer, I have been in the poo at the Y 3 weeks swimming everyday getting my legs and breath in shape. These vids are inspiring tks Bearhunter5

[@CMhoon]

Great video!!

Glad you enjoyed it

[@clifforddeschaine6346]

That brings back memories...I got certified 32 years ago at a ymca lol !!!It's been so long !!!Now i just clam and crab !!!!

[@ClarkJudah]

That's a long time. Looking forward to stone crab season myself.

[@jurassicsushi]

This was so damn interesting and cool to watch. In all my years of watching KZbin you are the first to bring and show Scuba certification out of all my subscribed channels. Thanks for sharing this adventure with us. I nice look into what it takes. I'd like to see a follow up on hand signals if you can.

[@ClarkJudah]

That's really cool to hear. There will be a few more on this in the next few days. As always, thanks for watching!

[@Hxcker_Nico]

first love your vids btw im also gonna get scuba certified soon

[@ClarkJudah]

That's a great idea!

[@ceeiv8143]

Dude really... even random Scuba teacher is hot! Lol Fun episode.

[@ClarkJudah]

Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it

[@calkelpdiver]

As an ex-Scuba Instructor I can see some things (IMO) that Kate explained wrong. First, the BC should be situated where the top of the tank valve is even with the top of the neckline on the BC. This is so the tank doesn't ride high and hit you in the back of the head while swimming. Second, the 2nd strap at the top of the BC is the carry strap and should not be around the tank valve. Some BC's may have a second strap under the primary buckle one, and that is for added stability of the tank in the BC. Third, always work from behind the tank so that you naturally mount the Regulator system (1st and 2nd stages) correctly with the primary reg and octo on the right side, and power inflator & gauges on the left. Fourth, again working from behind the tank you hold the gauge/console down and away from you and other people. Then you slowly crack the tank valve and let the air come in. Open the valve slowly all the way and then a quarter turn back. That way you can easily close the tank valve if you have a leak at the tank/1st Stage connection. You leave quarter turn back because some valves may be sticky or someone cranked it open all the way it is stuck. As part of checking your regulator's breathing you should also do a check on the BC Power Inflator to make sure the air is going in and there isn't a problem at that point. Laying down the tank/BC rig should be done with the tank on bottom and the regs (primary/octo) and gauge console on top. That way you don't get crap in it (sand when beach diving) or those items can get damaged (tank rolls on them, or something lands on them). Hopefully the BC has accessory clips for the gauge hose and octo. They help keep things organized. And good for Kate putting the hand on the 2nd stage reg during the CESA skill. That was good prevention of him spitting out the 2nd stage. Sorry, taught for 15 years (10 in SoCal, 5 in Colorado). If I stayed active teaching, last month (September) would have been my 30 year mark as an instructor.

I was praying you didnt grab scuba pro I was hoping for mares or oasis a tip for scuba diving when you are taking the gear off in the water fill up the bladder so you some what float and that's awesome that you getting scuba certified congrats

[@ClarkJudah]

I took a poll with all my friends that scuba dive and a majority of them said they liked Scuba Pro. So, I went with it. Also, Austin's Dive Center had everything I needed.

[@jonathancella475]

@@ClarkJudah I think it's really just preference but my uncle still has his oasis (vest) from high school

[@smitty2276]

How do you like you scuba pro hydros BCD? Was considering on getting one

[@ClarkJudah]

I liked it but its the only one Ive ever used so I dont have anything to compare it to. All my hard core scuba buddies seemed to like it over the other brands.

[@christophervaldes5633]

Whenever I gotta buy diving gear, Austin’s dive center is the place I go. Great shop🏊‍♂️ Edit- Somehow I typed “free” after “gotta buy”.

[@ClarkJudah]

They were very helpful and had eveything I needed for this adventure.

Definitely do it!

“I never did good in school.” Teacher replies: “well, dammit, well. You don’t do good you do well.” And Judah realizes not much has changed in 30+ years.

What do you say or hand signals to a first time scuba or free diver student if they see a shark under water?

So I’m just curious what a house like yours in that area goes for on average?

That house just sold for 2M.

[@nanook637]

This channel just got better (scuba time) you need a compressor to fill your own tanks

[@ClarkJudah]

Glad you think so! Now that would be convenient!

[@carlpennick]

I'm trying to work out why people would watch your videos and then give them a thumbs down. If you don't like diving or women in bikinis why watch them? Anyway welcome to the Darkside of spearfishing as you know you will be taking a speargun down on tanks soon😀

[@ClarkJudah]

Thanks brother! I'm assuming those are vegans giving thumbs down lol😝

[@carlpennick]

@@ClarkJudah Which begs the question why watch a spearfishing video!!! Well I enjoy them so that's all I care about.

[@Speedospearo]

Ditch those stupid scuba fins and use your free dive fins for scuba !! I have hundreds of videos of us scuba diving with freedive fins - most good scuba hunters will be wearing freedive fins.

[@ClarkJudah]

Thanks for the tip!

[@turkleton4054]

Why are you wearing a hat while scuba diving?

[@ClarkJudah]

That’s my signature look and it creates better hydrodynamics.

[@angelo5152]

I think you guy's are just plain nuts! ...diving is dangerous sport and should not be attempted by anyone who is not certified or trained... therefor you are putting yourself at risk of drowning or getting the bends!

[@ClarkJudah]

I'm not sure what you mean because Kate is a certified scuba instructor and this video is of us getting our scuba training certification.
