New extreme sport....Scuba Pond Swooping

[Dee]

Just before skydivers land, they are swooping down over ponds and dragging their feet through the surface of the pond...for real!

Hey IG....this is where our pond expertise will come in handy! As we hang under the parachute in full dive gear, slicing the surface of the water with our fins, we'll know where the submerged logs and tree-top snags are!

You go first!

You know... I was mentioning to my GF in a passing joke:

"You know what would be a cool extreme sport? SkyScuba! You jump from a plane in full scuba....plummet, open chute, land in water. cut chute. and continue down diving!"

We could only come up with two problems with this idea:

1) The Chute would have to be the less reliable stomache chutes istead of back chute. (Tanks are on your back)

2) Figuring out your Pressure Group would have to be a NIGHTMARE!

Well...there ARE some details still to work out

I bet Zeagle, who was originally a parachute harness company, could find a solution for the parachute.

Pressure groups only come into play on multiple dives...um jumps.

But first, someone has to push me out of the plane!!!

OK I saw a training Parachute basically a tandem harness set up. bottom person full scuba top person after dropping bottom person skims the water.

just remember that you have to wait 12 hours between jumps

All of the cool research we could do without disturbing the foam around the edges!
