i was on a dive boat last weekend when i heard two people talking about drymouth from there regs. one guy said that he usually brings one of those camel packs with him to decrease drymouth and dehydration. i've never heard of such a thing, what do u think


thanks,
Drew
 
Do a web search for "SCUDA" <self contained underwater drinking apperatus> and see what you find.
 
My guess is he was talking about bringing one with him on the trip, not nessicarly into the water. I've never heard of such a thing and while I supose it would be possable to drink from one underwater, I dont think its a good idea or even worth it.
 
hmmm... all i do is take the reg out and swallow a few times, then re-insert

usually, that's all it takes
 
Capri Sun's work great underwater. Drymouth can sometimes be a symptom of not being hydrated enough.

hehehe... no, no... i don't swallow the WATER :wink:

i close my mouth and THEN swallow. there's enough moisture in your mouth
to get your throat undry
 
Andy really enjoys it when there is plenty of fish poop in suspension. :) I am always wary of even swishing around water and spitting it out just due to all the crud that is usally in the water.
