So up until now I was only familiar with inflating from my octopus.@JohnnyC if you have a BOV you can fully exhale into the breather, switch to bov, and use the oral inflation tube if you don't want to use an inflator. I have tried it with a DSV and it works fine though is a bit annoying having to swap back and forth. Easier to use the drysuit hose though
Yesterday I tried as well inflating in the pool by disconnecting my BCD hose, I was surprised at how fast the DSMB filled up and pulled me.
I’ll connect an extra hose when I receive my dry suit in a few weeks, I’ll practice more this technique although I plan to use oral inflation in the future.
Someone at my club has a blowgun attachment which can be used to fill up a DSMB as it is smaller than an octopus. (Not something I plan to use myself)
