The skill I found the hardest to endure, not necessarily perform, was removing your mask then putting it on again. Not having the correct head position to begin with so the bubbles were constantly going up my nose and also the bad water visibility without the mask due to it being a quarry caused to to panic but I managed to calm myself and let my instructor know. It may have taken 20 seconds longer than it needed but he was impressed I managed to stop myself from panicking and then let him know I was good

What about this….
During my 1st dive trip getting OW cert. During the night dive, another student quickly swam above me and spun around really fast, hitting me on the back of the head with his cylinder, stunning me for a few seconds, no1 saw it, it was a night dive. Should this fail a student?
Thank you

It wasn’t that they didn’t like that video, it was just different then how they may have done it. I don’t remember exactly but I thought that video, could’ve been misinterpreted as well. Even this video is correct but also has a few questionable things, but no matter I’m sure this is how he does his course, and or the experiences he had. But overall this video is spot on.
