I am taking my PADI OW course and for the theory I was taught that I should float at eye level with empty BCD and lung full of air.
When in the pool I did not float at eye level, in fact I sank like a brick.
My DI said not to worry and I should ignore what PADI says about this in the pool.
My question is why would my DI opinion be different to that of PADI s official stance? He says that as long as you can go up and down then whats the problem. Im just curious as to why your supposed to float at eye level.
Thanks in advance
