Miss my Carrying Strap

Tamas are you spying on JeffG?

Sand is not silt.

Hey, sand is considered silt. At least in cave training it is. Luckily, sand is heavy and as a result does not stay suspended in the water column long. As a result, most silt outs due to sand are short lived.

This finger walking sounds similar to a pull and glide. As Soggy said, if you can propel yourself with a kick, save the environment and keep your hands to yourself.

...and now back to our regulalry scheduled programming:

As originally asked by redhatmama, how and why is the strap a snag point, especially on fishing lines inside caves?

 

[Soggy]

Umm...yeah, whatever.

LOL!

You have to learn to think outside the box or more linearly. Remember, don't believe everything you read or someone tells you - use your own nagen sometime.....you'd like it!

There are other places to dive other than caves.

You clearly don't understand the concept of minimalism, which is what this mythical dive style called "Hogarthian" is based upon.

Yes, I think finger walking and pull and glide are the same. There are some restrictions too shallow for any kind of kick. That's when you finger walk. So I suppose modified flutter works well in narrow spaces. But what's with the hip twitch? I'm a girl and I can't get my buns to move like that.

I think it's actually the easiest of all those kicks since it is so much like the flutter, only with your fin tips pointed up and your knees bent. I could show you, but describing it over the Internet is next to impossible.

Aaahhh. Light bulb. Fin tips pointed up is the key. I just bent my foot up at the anke and extended my leg at the knee and felt my buttocks move.
