I had the opposite problem a couple of weeks ago. I keep an smb tied to my spool . The spool I had was recently ordered from DGX but I forgot how much line I ordered it with.
We were diving in S. Florida and our own dive boat ran over our flag and severed the line a few minutes into the dive...
You can white knight all you want or you can be helpful. As a DM you did learn about this when you took Rescue Diver, No?

AGE is very possible at those depths. At 1.5 ata (15 ft), the gas in your lungs will expand by 50% if you surface without exhalation. But your symptoms do not correlate with that.
This. You can get an arterial gas embolism / pulmonary barotrauma from a rapid ascent from 13ft but no way will you get decompression sickness as there just won’t be enough nitrogen absorbed in your tissues for just a few minutes at that depth. Sorry but the cause of your illness was most...
Haven't read the whole thread yet but this is wrong. According to the teric manual, it is assumed you surfaced INSTANTLY not after a standard ascent rate. (Apologies if this was corrected later on).
Trust me, I'm passionate about sailing, flying, and diving... tried getting family involved in all of it and it feels forced. Good luck with your s.o. though.
If you ever used a handheld vhf on a boat, you know its range is severely limited compared to mast mounted units. The rule of thumb is typically 1 watt per nautical mile, but realistically you can rarely get more than 2 miles at deck level, say three or four feet over the surface . Now try it...
Why do people always want to get their spouses/gfs into the hobbies they like?
I enjoy going on vacation, getting up early to dive, while the wife and kid enjoy sleeping late. I look forward to ending the dive and getting back to them in time for brunch.
I'm wondering if the diver had felt some psychological pressure to retrieve the weight out of fear of littering the wreck or the environment rather than or in combination with the fear of being excessively buoyant.
Why did you ruin his video!?!?! :D
I have great shots of Goliath groupers in florida during the seasonal aggregation. Everyone of those videos is pretty much useless because of the strobes of photographers who think they are the only person on the dive. My best videos are reef creatures I've...
