    Hats off to you my friend; this is exactly how I prep for most every dive. I am primarily a solo/highly self-sufficient and Wisconsin Shipwreck diver and your video “give or take a minor detail here or there “Is how it is done. We dive very deep and cold here in Wisconsin, USA and let me say, I will use your video to illustrate to other potential beginning Drysuit divers, that the little extra effort in Drysuit diving prep that is required to dive in this fashion, opens up a whole new world of diving comfort and adventure that can’t be beat.
    Here is my personal dive list of philosophical rules that I follow, I hope helps others…..
    1st Have a consistent and linear routine of pre-dive checks in place, and never deviate from them.
    2nd Do not compromise when it comes to thoroughness and pre-dive checks. Time is irrelevant.
    3rd Never, Never! assume things” Certainty “ is the best dive partner you with ever have.

      Michael Ammon #4 Never dive alone. He wasn’t solo diving. Someone was filming him. I’m as self sufficient as any experienced diver out there but I never dive alone. Even a newbie on his first dive can signal for 911 if something goes south. Plus, for me, it’s a lot more fun to have someone to share the experience with.

      @@jackg.7745 Solo diving seems too risky imho, if you have a dive buddy it’s just like a battle buddy in the armed forces, you always have someone there looking out for you, and if you need someone/something they are right there for you. If you managed to get complacent and something happened and you are alone, if it isn’t something immediately fixable, death is there with you too.

Very well presented information. Anyone who says otherwise is insecure and wanting to run down others people to make themselves feel better.

    To set the automatic dump valve - open valve fully - close during descent - when buoyancy is achieved at greatest depth open until bubbles come out then back two clicks. It will be set from this point forward. Also one other point, if you have to disconnect your inflator hose and its under your arm you will lose it. A better position is through the D rings on your BCD, that way if it jumps out of your hands as it so often does, you will know exactly where to find it again. Good video apart from that. :)

    • @harrodharrod5239

    • @MultiHunterOne
      @MultiHunterOne 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@harrodharrod5239 The best way to do that is to stand next to your rig, put the hose under the strap, first plug yourself in and only then don the BCD, starting with the left arm. The hose will be already plugged into your suit by the time you're wearing the BCD and you don't have to search for it and try to squeeze it under the strap.

    Cool video. Shows the basics of dry suit diving... about how hoses go, I do it differently, but we have to keep in mind that depending on the setup the hose routing might be different (for instance double tanks you get pressure gauge on both sides, and it is good practice to check both)... I have tendency to try to keep the spare octo hose under my arm and the main octo over my arm... But in the end, it is down to each person's routine (except some conventions such as weight belts)...
    I strongly advise any watcher of this video to go through a dry suit course if they decide to dive in a regular basis with a dry suit (and join the course BEFORE you buy the suit, and buy the suit right AFTER the theory and BEFORE the open water dives following the recommendations of your instructor)... CMAS, NAUI have specific courses, and so does PADI... You get to try out the "rocket man" and you get to know how to estimate how much weight you need for a dive (it varies according to your under suit).
    Is it true that we cannot bring our own gear to go diving in Silfra (to prevent contamination from stuff that would be carried from another dive spot on the foreign gear)? I am considering diving there and I have to consider weather or not it is a good idea to drag all my gear (including my dry suit, except my weight belt and tank)... What are the best dive sites in Iceland in your opinion?

    • @benoitespinola3861
      @benoitespinola3861 8 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Two by the ways...
      1) To dive with a dry suit like a pro you need a lot of practice... and it's a good idea to practice next to someone with experience that is willing to have you as a balloon during the dive (and knows what to do in that case)... I had some CMAS P3 divers going with a dry suit for the first time and they went in rocket man mode turning into a nice balloon... I eventually helped them to empty the suit (in that case he was under weighted, as air has been consumed his buoyancy went positive and he had air in the suit... up he goes, air expands, exponential effect.... So, for the rest of the dive I grabbed a couple of rocks and gave him, he was a bit embarrassed as he has a longer dive log than me)... So it's not about your experience, dry suit diving is starting from 0, it is really different from wet suit diving...
      2) subscribed to your channel... Iceland is one of my projects... So is Greenland, Faeroe Islands and Svalbard...

    Not meant as a critisism, as i'm sure it was just missed due to the video, however don't forget guys to check the spg whilst test breathing the regs for any drop in pressure (drop in pressure on the spg whilst breathing the regs = valve not fully open), they may breathe fine on the surface with a valve not fully open, however down at depth will be an entirely different story........

    What about getting the air out your suit before you put weight belt on and I would also recommend put your left arm through first so you don’t catch your valve on the bcd/wind strap.

      If anyone else ever reads your comment, the suit is the Waterproof brand - Suit model: D1 Hybrid. I don't think it's manufactured anymore, but a newer version is the D1X.

    When measuring for your dry suit. Should you wear your under layers while measuring?

    Very nice set up but self donning is the only way to go. Thanks for sharing.

    Nice video, I'm evaluating drysuits currently. Honest question, whats with the fins? They look REALLY weak. is there an advantage I'm unaware of? I'm ditching my split fins because in favor of some stronger ones. Thanks.
