sidemount video - Rock Bluff

[*Ag*]

Some of you might enjoy this, shows what sidemount diving is all about.

The video was taken in Rock Bluff, a sidemount cave in North Florida. It has a difficult entrance that requires a whole bunch of effort to actually negotiate... and that's just the start of it.

Wow -- how did anybody ever figure out that there was going cave behind that little slot? Just from the flow?

I actually got into sidemount because of a bad knee but hey if a girl can do it then I can too right? Maybe next year, I still have some things to tweek and for that dive I need to be done tweekin. Im sure when you get wedged the water your blocking can get pretty strong.

There are tons of caves that start out like that, or smaller, with lots of going cave behind it You don't know until you go

I have not been stuck lately, but the last time still haunts me some, I almost gave up cave diving from that one. Sidemount is the way to go if you have an injury. I only go in big cave now, cause I enjoy eating too much to fit in small caves.
