what are you doing during long deco?

[dvas]

hi everyone,
i was just wondering what are possibilities for the long deco stops on 9m/6m/3m. WHat are you doing? Reading? Whatching movies? Playing games (board,...)? Teezing you buddy?
ANy idea is welcome... maybe we come up with some new ones?

Hi Sasha... like the avitar

Long decos... relative term. Hanging out on a line in blue water is of course carries the highest potential for boredom... on rocks and stuff there are fish and tiny critters to look at... and good "line games" are: Tie up your buddy; Steal and Swop (a sort of clandestine exchange of reels, lights and so on among your unsuspecting dive buddies). This is an excellent game when the deco is crowded! Also good are the small plastic games that have sliding tiles which one has to rearrange into some order... a picture of series of numbers. Reading works but tends to be environmentally unfriendly.

Take care

DD =-)

I usually relax ant think at the dive, analyzing it.
But my deco stops are not longer than 40-50 mins until now

there is another thread on here right now asking if anyone has fallen asleep underwater and so far a few have mentioned nodding-off during their deco stops.

Anyone try one of those underwater walkmans?

I was thinking about getting one. I even saw one that offers small underwater speakers instead of headphones so the group can hear the music.

But what if they don't like your music?

I've not yet seen one with enough depth rating to be usable.
