"8 Dives verses 80 Dives" who is the better diver:
Divers will talk about how many dives they have done; like it means that they have lots of experience and are great divers. Ok this could be true but then again maybe not. So you are thinking where is we going with this. I had gone diving with a couple divers that only had 8 dives, as we were diving we came across two other divers. I watched to my amazement these other 80+ dive divers negative, kicking up the bottom, arms flailing, lots of air bubbles expelling through their regulator as they are on their underwater sightseeing adventure. So here I am neutrally buoyant, arms clasped in front of me, relaxed breathing as well as my dive buddies looking back and fourth thinking to myself, 8 dives verses 80+ dives...hummm) The moral of this story is many of us think "Practice Makes Perfect" that's what we have been told "Perfect Practice Makes Perfect". So the next time you go diving please work on your diving skills, especially buoyancy control is so important. When I see people who have trouble with buoyancy and on the bottom I sometimes think that many divers are over weighted, when was the last time you did a weight check and do you know how much weight you need with what type of tank you are using.
Maybe consider the Peak Performance Buoyancy Course.
