My Naval SCUBA Dive class (06010)

A lot of people ask on how to become a diver, and though I must reiterate that this only a Navy SCUBA class, the advice is the same. Practice and stay in the game. The game is mental, so if you tell yourself you can do it, and really believe it, you can.

To clear any misconception that there may have been, and to prevent anyone from getting hurt, please do not practice negatives in water alone. Holding your breath in water is dangerous, and should not be taken lightly. If you are on compressed air and try this, there could be serious problems. If you are going to practice negatives, please do so in a safe, controlled environment.

For those of you who think this is not a dive class, regardless of length (This class actually took 6 weeks) or actual type of dive (SCUBA), you can just move along. There are is no need to leave nasty comments or tell me how much you disagree. Those comments will not be approved. If you would like to say something useful or ask a question, feel free.

In addition, the soundtrack on here is not the original. Youtube disabled my sound due to copyright laws, so I picked a song that fit the movement the best. It’s not my favorite song, but it works.

Boat dive to the Blue Hole in Guam, a 127ft-130ft deep exit and slow ascend back.

This is the first video I have taken underwater, and the first one using the GoPro HD camera. You can clearly see well the camera works on the surface but, once underwater it shows signs of blurred image — this was addressed by the GoPro team saying that they will soon provide a new housing with better lens.

This is a great and fun dive that you should try if you are visiting or living in Guam, just remember to check your depth gauge frequently because the drop after the hole can go as deep as 300ft.

This instructional video is an overview for the different types of Scuba Dive Computers including Consoles, Wrist, Hose Mount, or Module style Computers.

Dive computers offer the diver a safer and much more convenient way of monitoring decompression limits. A dive computer can also calculate the bodys nitrogen according to the scuba diver´s depth and time, allowing for a diving profile that is much more flexible than the square profiles provided by the conventional dive tables. Owning a dive computer can eliminate the need to have a pressure gauge and depth gauge which will allow you to streamline your gear.

Nitrox dive computers allow the diver to use standard air or Enriched Air Nitrox. Hoseless or wrist dive computers can be mounted in a console, on the wrist, on a hose or even on a retractor.
