I dove as a safety diver with Instructor John’s Open Water class.*<\/strong><\/p>\n In With: 3400 psi I went free diving while the students were gearing up. <\/p>\n I think I should take a few pounds off my weight belt.<\/p>\n Leeza had problems with the skin dive. <\/p>\n She was in near panic and John brought he back in.<\/p>\n So we geared up in the water we went, all eight of us. <\/p>\n The ninth person, Leeza, snorkeled on the surface per John’s instructions.<\/p>\n I submerged first, then the three students from the later class, Young Hottie, Green Horn, Pedro and then John followed.<\/p>\n John did basic check outs for three of his students, while the rest of us just floated around.<\/p>\n Pedro was holding on to a metal disk and chain trying to stay down. <\/p>\n It looked like some bizarre underwater trapeze act.<\/p>\n After the check outs, we followed John to the Jacques Cousteau memorial.<\/p>\n Some students were running low on air, so we headed back in.<\/p>\n Pedro was doing his bicycle kick\/dog paddle routine. <\/p>\n Amazingly enough, he was able to propel himself.<\/p>\n The tide was so high, that three to four steps of the stairs were submerged.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Casino Point, Catalina, CA I dove as a safety diver with Instructor John’s Open Water class.* In With: 3400 psi Out With: 2400 psi Max depth: 45 feet Waves: Insignificant, High Tide Visibility: 20 feet Water Temperature: Cold at 45 feet Total Bottom Time: About 30 minutes *The names of students have been changed.
