Report Thailand Bans Underwater Photography for Diving Trainees to Protect Corals
Guess it all depends on the student, but it came natural to me & my buddy. Instructor was quite happy about that, as after 2nd dive, he taught us a couple other things. 1 st dive, tested buoyancy control, no prob. 2nd dive, he had us take all the gear, drop all to the sand, no mouthpiece in for 30 secs, then put back on. At that point, he realized we didn't need any hand holding. Took us to a small, open-ish wreck, and purposely tangle our one leg, unexpectedly. Test our panic mode. He got bored, 3rd & 4th dive, so taught us better navigation, which came in real handy. 5th & 6th dive (5 needed), and vis was getting real bad on 5th one. He said if you want, you're done & certified, come back again for 2 dives, instead of going back in now for 6th. We weren't going to be around, so we went back in for #6. Should have listened to him, as vis went to near 0. With a slight current. Me & my buddy got split up kind of fast, and both surfaced immediately. Got back together, back down, and navigated back to the boat. Instructor thought for sure, he'd have to come pick us up. I was surprised myself that what he taught us actually worked. Swimming blind looking at your compass ain't the best feeling underwater. Half way through the dive, we did pop back up to check our bearings, to his relief. Then when we took an advanced course at a different shop, we didn't learn anything new. and learned it in the 'open water' course. So that instructor took us to a couple challenging site, and an awesome deep wall @ Puerto Rico. One of our best dives along with a night dive there. Lucky to have a great instructor, for book and pool learning, NJ, USA. And a few in the class/pool didn't pass. Then referred our dives to warm water FL, USA. On topic, we, me, have never dove with any incompetent divers, or instructors, that I noticed teaching, though rare on those type trips. Seen plenty of vids of idiots though. If I can't dive my computer, I don't use them. If the say 20 or 30 mins down time, then back up. I just ignore them, I don't do set time limits. I dive with a spare air anyway.
