Do not leave the dock without
When you pack your bag and equipment, including perhaps your equipment checklist and the usual emergency equipment, mask, fins, regulator and one of these groups, with a few extra o-rings, patches and neoprene organizer horns. Here are a few additional things you can throw in your gear bag that will make your diving more comfortable, confident and secure.
Citrus drinks
When the surface and the first thing you want to do is get a taste of the ocean of my mouth. As much as I enjoy the smell of the sea and the salty air, and I'm not very enthusiastic about having it on my tongue. Refreshing water, but I find that I can drink several liters of bottled water and taste are still vestiges of the sea in my mouth.
After experimenting with dozens of drinks candidates and I think five living is hands down the best treatment for oceanmouth. Other citrus juices are good, but none are as effective as five fully alive. The best among them are those which contain acidic juices such as grapefruit, and pineapple.
Juice serves another purpose: rehydration. Seems to be spending an hour immersed in water can cause dehydration should, but it's true. The air in your tank is very dry - even necessarily, because the moisture in the tank rusting inside. Is breathing in this air dry for an hour in silence dehydrate you. Something to drink when you get back to the boat and you can avoid the symptoms of dehydration, such as nausea, headaches and dizziness.
Cotton shirt with long sleeves or rashgard
Did you know that toxic chemicals in sunscreens in the marine life that live in coral reefs? You must protect your skin against the harmful effects of UV rays, but you do not want to slather the SPF lotion before you plunge yourself. To cover the old cotton shirt with long sleeves or Rashguard.
Graphical dive table coated
You rely on your computer? Save and review your training certificate and how to calculate residual nitrogen using your tables. Computers are great tools, but belongs to each diver to remember how to manage nitrogen levels without innovations.
A "dry bag"
Waterproof bag should not be anything fancy - cheap bags with resealable flaps are available in grocery stores or more marine camping. They do not need to be waterproof to 100 feet - as you leave the boat in a bag of your equipment. My favorite is the bright yellow rubber bag, with the top that folds over three times and end in itself tight seal for easy water. And many divers on a budget using a variety of resealable freezer bags available.
In my bag to dry, I continued:
• Tissues - a necessity. After crossing the mask several times, my sinuses insurrection.
• Cotton swabs - a little attention to Nice to get water in the ears.
• A copy of passport and identity - just in case
• Frequency AIDS - because I stub my toe on boats
• Everything that was in my pockets - wear a suit before my country, my waterproof bag (ex SEAL thereof) is a good place to keep your cell phone, camera, wallet, jewelry, car keys, etc. .
Tell someone where you are going and who you are with them.
Make it a habit, they do not need to worry when the emergency arises.
Firstly, make sure that the diving player knows who you are, where you live and who to contact in case of emergency. If you are injured during the dive, dive operators had to fight directly to the nearest hospital, medical clinic or decompression chamber. If the medical staff can not identify you, you can keep your doctor.
Secondly, tell someone who is not diving with you wherever you go. Perhaps others in your group, hotel concierge or a phone call to the house of relativity. Tell them the name of the dive shop, your destination and time of departure and time of return of your dive. If you know the names of the boat captain and divemaster. If you are traveling alone or diving in a group, write the information down and leave it with the Office of the hotel. If your hotel is near popular dive site will be used for this sort of thing.
