How many times have you tried to explain buoyancy to a student, child or adult, only to get that blank look on the face? Or does this only happen during my classes? During Scubacamp last week, another instructor pulled this out during the classroom session to show the kids buoyancy. I had to have one. It is easy to set up, simply get a plastic bottle and follow the directions.
Squidy is the perfect tool to demonstrate buoyancy control concepts during a open water scuba certification class. Squeeze the bottle to make Squidy descend and release to ascend. With the perfect amount of pressure he will remain neutrally buoyant. This perfectly demonstrates that pressure increases as a diver descends and decreases as the diver ascends.
