This Sunday, i was diving and some how i lost my fin strap. It was a spring strap too:O.. But Since i lost it, i didnt feel like wasting all this valuable gas. So i took off my fins and walked around on the bottom. First let most of the air out of your wing or BC and just walk. Some fun things are climbing up walls or jumping and its like your in space. Anyone can do this. I had double LP95's and an Al80stage and it was still fun.Just take things slow because you kinda use up ur air fast also take things slow at some points because of CO2 build up. I enjoy it and am going to do it again. Although you do silt it up but w.e its still fun. If there are any other things like this post them:) oh and for all the people out there that dont like me every much and talk **** about me cause i needed help with shooting a bag. well i mastered it. I did it about 50 times in a row:)
 
Great, now they will talk **** about you for walking on the bottom and destroying the marine life.

Way to go.
 
Congrats Crash! You have mastered the very thing we go into the water to get away from. If I wanted to walk around, I'll do that on the surface.

As for the bag shooting, I just find it a riot that someone who claimed to be a 'tech instructor' doesn't know the basics.

Hey didn't they do that in the first "Pirates of the Caribbean"? and without weights or air.I hate when someone thinks of it first!
 
:popcorn:
 
I want to hear more about losing a spring strap - these things are pretty much impossible to lose. I mean, you need to stick the damn things in a vice to bend the metal into place - they do not come out by accident - especially on both sides!

Which brands are the fins & straps. How did you lose one?
 
LiteHedded:
maybe he was in a quarry?
Even quarries have little creatures that live in the bottom and under rocks. I used to pick up rocks to find the little creatures just to see them. I quit doing that when the local pirhana started following me around waiting to get an instant meal:D

yep, you nailed this one early :popcorn:
 
What did you do with the fins while you were walking around? What did your buddy do -join you in the stroll or swim around you?

I'm not sure I agree with your title, that's for sure.
