| Putting the vital bit in. when I DM'd in Dahab we used to take all the guests for a check dive on the first day to get there weighting right and do a couple of skill to see what we had to work with, mask clears, reg recovery, that sort of thing.
was checking some new divers one day and for the fourth time explained a fin pivot, signalled to descend, as we reached 2 meters, breathed in to neutralise my buoyancy and got a very wet breath. pondered for a moment, then realised I had no reg in.
and I thought we were professionals. |
