New pool dive update!
Hi Everyone,

I just wanted to let you know I did 45 minutes under the water
yesterday! It was great! We went to the deep end again and I was
under at about 5 ft deep. I turned onto my belly for about 10
minutes, that, was really awesome!

On the inside of my dry suit I have a connector that hooks my vent
tubing to my dry suit, we found a hairline crack in it, and the air
escaping kept making my dry suit blow up! I think I need to find one
that is made of metal or some other sturdy material. We are going
to check into it later.

Next time I am hitting an hour. Thats the longest I am going to
go. After that I am going to start spending more time on my belly,
getting the bouyancy down pat. Eventually I want to work up to 6 ft under the water seeing how that goes.

Here's a link to some new pictures I added of my pool dive
yesterday... http://matt55125.tripod.com/scuba

Take care everyone.
Matt

Hey guys! Thanks for the great encouragement as always! I just happened upon this post, sorry I didn't get back to anyone sooner. Your support is greatly appreciated! No more leak issues for me. I'm already for my big one hour dive today! Take care and safe diving.
