My 200th dive...

Newer Older

I began diving in 1996. Ten years later and my 200th dive... I never would have believed it!
(Photo was taken by my husband, Chris.)

Cool V... and Henrique (BRAZIL) added this photo to their favorites.

    I've seen those masks and always laugh that only models wear them!
    Also, I realized I should have taken the regulator out of my mouth, after the photo was taken. Now that I have the underwater camera, I'll think about it!
    Thanks!

    I know these masks well: I used to use one _before_ models started using them, back in the days where men were men, sheep were scared and divers told everybody it was hard and difficult ;-)

    The main reason I stopped using it is that with a "normal" regulator in my mouth, I couldn't put my hand over the DV and pinch my nose to equalise on the way down, I had to use both hands, slipping the index finger between the DV and the mask on each side to pinch my nose.
    If you're going to buy a new mask, remember to try that _with_ your DV when you go to the shop...

    Congratulations on your 200th dive, feels good doesn’t it!! About taking your 2nd stage out of your mouth, remember that should be done for a safety reason and a photograph does not qualify. The photographer should take the shot when you are between breaths, like what you husband did here, good job!!
