PADI "Looking Good" Certification

And then you're sitting on the boat for another hour, and then do another dive for another hour.

No, then I'm taking the boat back to shore for a nice lunch in an establishment with a restroom. If not, I can always go to the head or doff the wetsuit, jump in the water and let go without embarrassing the other divers.

I have gained valuable insight in this discussion. I believe only a comment or two might acquaint new people with the issues discussed here and resurrect it.

See? It is working.

IME on the Caribbean "2-tank morning dive" this only happens if both sites are within 5-ish minutes of the pier. Most of the time they aren't.

I look good whether I'm unabashedly peeing in my wetsuit or not.

Some people squat on the ladder with suit down to upper-mid-thigh.

I wear an always filming paralenz on my mask strap and get some horrific footage
