I find your ideas intriguing and wish to subscribe to your newsletter. But seriously, can you elaborate? Do you lean back as you step off? How do you keep your fins out of the way? I really prefer not to hand off my camera, so I'm always looking for ideas.If I'm carrying a camera,,,,,I giant stride BACKWARDS . It softens the water against the front of my body and eases the force to the camera & strobes. You can step off the boat backwards too. And just like stepping forward we always look before we step backwards, makes no difference forwards or backwards.
