Splash... No fins :(

[bradells]

On nice calm water, if we're all waiting on the surface, I'll occasionally start my descent without my reg in .... And usually around 10-15 seconds later I remember to put it in.

Similarly when kayaking, I generally forget that I can't breath underwater if I can't roll back over before bailing.... Need to figure a way to reprogram my brain again ....

I've forgotten my weight belt at the car a few times on shore dives with looooong walks uphill both ways ......

We get rid of Florida, Southern Calif, TX, NM and Arizona (and parts of NY) and we would have a GREAT country!

Yep you would have all of the south and the bible belt. Fun

My fins story was a shore dive on Maui...

Mine was on a liveaboard in the Bahamas. Fortunately I didn't forget my GoPro...

(2003) Teaching advanced off of a boat in Dubai, gave a great brief and example of a giant stride, asked "any questions? Now, can someone get me my fins?)

No problem with fins or mask, but got to the islands to do some video shoots and realized that my GoPro camera was back home - forgot to take it with me. Now I keep it with my gear, all ready to go - camera, light, mount in my goPro travel case (http://bit.ly/onthegocase). Won't make that mistake again!

So do you now have 'spare' gopro or did you just dive without?

O ring fell off just before a night dive. It was my friend who was visiting me on the Big Island. No spare o rings. I made one with a piece of wet suit. Not that's a first.

I've seen that done before. I think my buddy may have done it once. I geared up with no fins, but realized it when I stood up. Tough to put them on when wearing everything else.

Glad you had a great holiday of diving.
