Hyperbaric Chamber Visit and Advice For Scuba Divers - Sidemounting.com
Hello! Fellow Vanlifer! I built vans while you where diving, now when I learned to dive you got a van ahha. So you ever store your diving gear in the van? If so how?
I have stored dive gear in the van yes, I use dry boxes at the back and shower to act as a temporary wet room if needed and I cannot dry my wetsuit / drysuit in time before moving on. I have large under bed storage, you will see that in other videos. Regards, Steve
Thank you for the video and all your comprehensive information on BCD failure and a proper weighting.
How much
I am asking £48 K, all details on sale on this listing www.vanlifeadventure.com/campervans-for-sale/off-grid-campervan/ or this one www.quirkycampers.com/uk/for-sale/off-grid-campervan-3/. Also open to sensible offers, regards Steve
i bought this 5 years ago,,,, i did not use it ye🎉, do u recon i can still use it in the future....i have xtx50 sidemount set also, is it ok for tec diving?i dnt do caves i just like sidemount set up for long dives on shores
It could work, but if it was me, I would sell it and get something else like xdeep tec or razor system. I strongly suggest you invest in our sidemount online training course www.sidemounting.com/product/sidemount-course-subscription/ it will cover everything you need to know and yes the xtx50's make good sidemount regulators when setup correctly. There is way more to diving sidemount than just getting the equipment setup correctly, correct weighting, trim, advanced buoyancy and breathing control to name a few, all covered in online course Regards, Steve
Nice vid dude! Could you do a comparison sometime of all the "Jetfins" out there? i have a pair of Taiwan made Shark Jet Fins distributed by Halcyon here in Auz (by Reel Dive.se in EU), then there's Aropec's and ScubaPro's Taiwan fins too, then the rest. Rhetorically speaking aren't we just paying for a name when SHARK and AROPEC's are identical to ScubaPro's. Probably the same factory!?
My joints was aching badly Bc of job defarmation. Ty for this ting ❤
Ive only used Jet fins. Was wondering why I kept sinking😂
Prominent
Went through OW and never even talked about weights. How does one learn this stuff?
You can learn this in either our backmount or sidemount online training courses - www.sidemounting.com/the-shop/ we cover what the instructors and dive agencies should be covering
Very cool video
Great music choice
nice
Well done guys some darn great info!
Is there a specific way how you put the Marigold gloves on the Santi dry glove system? I'd like to do the same.
Just add them the same way you do the santi glove they show you and sell.
One thing you didn’t show in the video is that you can unclip both tanks from the back (but still have shoulder strap on them) and hold them out in front, Superman style
That technique is rarely used, it just looks cool, which is why people like it, I guess. It actually occupies both hands and means if exploring you cannot run a reel or use a dive light easily, you also get twists in the loop bungee to, so I never use it any more to be honest. All you need mostly to pass a restriction is to remove one cylinder completely and make it handheld, I find.
Seawater or freshwater? Drysuit and wetsuit scenarios?
This was freshwater, we have many other videos in our paid online courses that cover everything you asked. There is one more free to view one that was done in salt water, you will want to watch www.sidemounting.com/lesson/technical-divers-multi-stage-drysuit-20-min/
Have you a break down of a helicopter turn?
Yes, this video ruclips.net/video/5wcilxFdAAM/видео.html. Much more content found on sidemounting.com
Transmitters (Swift) + drysuit heating (Santi) don't works together well. Heating is jamming transmission and you are loosing signal from both sides the moment you turn on the heating.
That is good to know, not something we have really tested. I will mention this to Shearwater and their thoughts on this. We will try to test this ourselves towards the end of the year when it gets cold again.
Amazing video!
where this is tested? in red sea the water is so salty, so can change the bouyancy. would be interesting to know the place where these fins have been tested to have an index reference.
These fins were tested in the Mediterranean Sea - Gozo, Malta
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥💯❤️
I have a apeks xt50 sidemount and wsx 25. Rk3 fin .a d6i novo computer. Is it good equilment fkr the course? Where are yoh based hoq long is the course duration for visa purpouses
Hi, please get in touch here www.sidemounting.com/about-us/ the courses are generally conducted in Gozo, Malta. 4 to 5 days of training for the Sidemount Essentials and yes your equipment is good, we can provide what you don't have or need. Regards, Steve
Great video should be shown to new divers.
Thoughtful design! Really cool stuff
Very nice build 🥰
Glad you like it, it was a lot of hard but mostly enjoyable work putting it together :)
Are the CV joints in good condition? Basically; do you hear any woodpecker type noises from a front wheel in a bend?
The CV joints are in good condition, I asked this during its last MOT and there is no noise when taking bends as you mention. Regards, Steve
Nice looking van build that 👍 Be interesting to see what it sells for 😁👍
Grea stuff. Very informative (and fun to watch too)
Great video. Finally understand…. Thanks so much for producing such informative video… sharing this video with my friends
Do you offer some kind of certification?
A version with narration would do well I think. Even if it was AI.
Thank you for all the information. It's really so nice to learn from you what my PADI open and advance did not teach me. I find it so horrible that the instructors did not teach us anything about weights and buoancy during any of the courses and the dives, they just gives the weights approximative and the we struggle during every freaking dive on our own , either we are too positive or too negative , now that I understand the principle and the importance of the weight check , i will insist before every dive to check my weights every time. I freaking go on trips and pay too much to those people and they don't even bother checking any of that. Once I was diving with 7kgs , another time with 5 kgs, another time 6.2 kgs. My last 10 dives were at 6.2kgs with a jacket style BCD (cressi travellight) 1mm rashguard , I'm 6' weigh 200 lbs . Thanks again , I love your informative rich videos. Regards. Mike.
Hi have you ever seen somebody dives with carbon fiber aluminum cilinders? I received a buoyancy table from carbondive, Austria and I'm thinking about to dive with this tuxing 6.8L China cilinder. We dive maximum 15 m. Normally 5 to 10
I am using a sidemount SCR. If I follow this process and just add the weight (measured in the water) of my SCR configuration (with backplate and harness plus accessories) in the equation, I guess it should work? However, I doubt I would ever be at 50 bars in both Nitrox tanks at the end of a dive.
Thanks, Steve! I'm AOW beginner, watch you, I'm learning English due to your slow and understandable speeches 😊
Showa 727 are also great and available in a size which you can use with the Santi heated undergloves. The only thing: they are just a little to thin to fit waterproof on the rings, so just double the part which is being locked by the O-ring and your fine.
Great video. Super informative!
Hi Steve. What hose loop covers are you using on your ccr?
Where can I buy a moving D-ring?
dive gear express or piranha dive gear.
I love my new Razor ❤ What I changed afger so.e dives, is the webbing, its to stiff and hurts imo. I changed it into halcyon webbing. I also changed the new buckle system bc I kept struggeling to let it slide proper with my hands.
You aren;'t lying about the webbing. I'm actually thinking about changing it myself.
can you show how did you attach it to the rebreather ?
Sidemount 🙄 🙄 🙄
I appreciate it. This video has been very helpful to me
Just a beautiful video explained everything so nicely. ❤ Thks
I’ve been considering switching to fixed d-rings in the shoulders to make clipping more consistent. I haven’t tried the sliding d-rings yet. It seemed like it would be more to fiddle with with, but I do find myself between a cheap 3mil in the Caribbean and a drysuit other times.
Very helpful I just switched to sidemount and doing everything by myself to the lack of quality training in my area I'd love to do the course with you Are you by chance coming to the Costa Brava to teach this year? I would join your course for sure
I came in feeling confident with my setup but leaving questioning everything I've learnt, including my fat arse bent d-ring 🥲
Remember the first time with my XDeep with Vas, I got back home with a bag full of d-rings, clips and other stuff we either removed or replaced for better options. Still love the modifications we have done, also the ones the second time over for the butt d-ring on xdeep.
Appreciate your video due the lack of detailed setup informations which goes beyond sidemount corses. I will hit the subscibe button. Best regards from Germany.
Great video and great way to understand the path, the difficulties and the hard work mandatory for cave diving in the appropriate way.
Hello from Seattle in the Pacific North West. Recently we have has some colder water temps especially in our lakes. Not as cold as other places but my references is diving in waters between 37 - 44 F (2.78 - 6.67 C). I am not interested in active heating at this time. So I literally just picked up the new to market (released November 2023) Fourth Element HALO A°R gloves, yes on the bulky side. From Grainger our US industrial supply supplier I found only one pair of exterior gloves that fit and they are size 3XL (My new Halo goes are Large). Unfortunately the chemical gloves I found are cotton lined and even after purchasing a Santi SmartGlove kit I am not at all impressed with how easy the glove slips off the ring with the cotton lining. They are also very thick and rigid no bueno for dexterity. I would prefer to do the pull over method as I have shown in my video here: ruclips.net/video/4LIhFkF765U/видео.html however I just got the Santi SmartGloves ring system so that is sill an option. I am open to any tips if any one has sourced a good fitting all rubber chemical glove in 3XL size. Cheers, #SeattleRingHunter
