Even if there is no scuba law in your area, I would recommend against it. Thinking back to my starting days, I would probably not even have endangered myself, but simply miserably failed to descend and come into trim. Much more fun also to do it under instruction!

"Extending" the snorkel is actually not a good idea, as you will have to work really hard to make sufficient air exchange happen against the water pressure. You can at the very least practice breathing mask-less with just your face in the water through the snorkel.

Yes, there it is typical you may want to do it at 6m instead of 3m. Can be very logical if diving under waves, and of course when doing it on 100%...

Yes, Atomic hoses have quite a price tag!

Second the point about considering an OPV if diving in a configuration where there is no other (harmless) release in case of rising IP.

Quite shocking. How do they manage to stay in business? Apart from it being not even possible depending on the amount of gear and conditions, it is a completely useless risk having to do all the heavy lifting in a hurry after a dive. Sure, I am also a proponent of "one should be able to provide...

Well many people dream of seeing an alligator while diving, no?

Barnaby's Dad, thanks! Actually, I never dive for golf balls. I also do not plan on doing so. I was to the contrary always surprised that this is really a thing...

There seems to be a lot more to golfball diving than I thought. The "need to find a lot of balls to break even" thing I figured...

A general problem throughout parts of the diving community. Sure, not every idea is good. But resistance to any innovation for sure also is not.

:eek:

Very nice! Thanks for sharing!

Do not feel confident in claiming any statistical value. What I see is that those folks that migrate to CCR seem to do it more or less completely.

On original topic: Waterproof user here, can not say anything negative. Except price ;)

Needs some flexibility I think. As others have said, thermal insulation is also at least to a point a function of the air in the suit.

Welcome :)

Welcome!

Personally, I do like rechargeable computers. Throw away batteries are so 1980 ;)
