Long dives, what do you do for hydration?

That thought briefly went through my head when I first tried drinking underwater from my camelbak but no issues at all and it didn't even feel "weird" or unnatural. It's especially refreshing on longer saltwater dives and saltwater seepage is very minimal.

I hate to admit that in my early 20s I hung out with some guys that figured out that gently exhaling into an upside down beer bottle forced the beer out, allowing a person to drink it underwater.

I'm clearly hanging out with the wrong dive buddies
