Ask you PADI instructor or look it up in the PADI Open Water Manueal !

I think that click the R3 button then use R and L 1 to bend it while holding down the R3 button.  for the power of the kicks, are you keeping it in the desiered power zone?

use some tape and make 4 x's in a box shape with another x in the middle. the hop on one foot hitting all x's as quick as you can moving from bottom x's to top x's then back down and that is one set. then switch feet. i usually time myself and do 5 set continually trying to always beat my time.

Do you mean racing dives or competitive dives?\nFor racing you are trying to get the furthest dive with the best entry and most momentum. A shallow, fingers first entry with a lot of forward motion when you are going into the water. You should be as streamlined as possible.\n\nCompetitive dives are a little like gymnastics. Certain moves must be done and are scored on difficulty and completion of key elements such as the entry and the position of the body during the dive.\n \nI hope that was helpful. If not, write more specifically what you don't understand and re-post the question. If you want more details, talk to a coach in your area if possible.

Yes...more dryland, stretching exercises, and hollow out slightly before entry. Do line ups and get body control. Diving can torque backs either by entries not lined up, or the board's rebound itself.

I'm a PADI Scuba Instructor in Guam and I used and see a lot of 'puters. I also own a $1000 (retail in Japan when it 1st came out). Sunto Spyder. I love it, but changing the battery is expensive. I log about 600+ dives a year and the battery only lasts about 1 yr. at a cost of $75. I also own a few that costs about $200.\n\nReliability is pretty good with almost all at any price range but I would suggest you get the best you can afford. Look for one that meets your needs. \n\nSome are expensive due to added features like Mix gas and capabilities to download info to your PC computer.\n\nIf you do a recreational dive and your computer fails, do a normal ascent and safety stop. As long as you do not exceed the deco limit or do a decompression dive you can abort the dive and ascend.\n\nWater temp is just a reference for you so you can plan your  dive gear accordingly (ex.Guam water temp=29 degrees centigrade=3 mm wetsuit or less)\n\nTalk with your local dive shops for more info...hope this helps, good luck and happy diving!!

The way I use it is by just throwing it out there, near cover.  Then, I slowly hop it back, in little scoots, like 6-inch jumps at a time.  Each time I hop it, I reel the line to keep it tight enough to feel the slightest disturbance.  When you do, set the hook!

well first what can you even do? and do you want to go the whole length? heres what i would do go very very fast possibly skitch a car or electrick dirt bike or somthing  front side switch bigspin and land on the rail in bs tailslide land with a manual and for the finalie casper flip 180. it sounds hard but its really not if you can do the tricks the hardest part will be landing in manual if you attempt

This is how you do it:\n\nExample:\n\n<a href="http://www.nismo.org">Nismo Racing

I think that you will have to have three foursomes the first day, four threesomes the second day and six twosomes the third day:\n\nDay 1:  abcd  efgh  ijkl\nDay 2:  aei  bfj  cgk  dhl\nDay 3:  ag  bh  ci  dj  ek  fl  \n\nOr, you can do it in reverse.\n\nAs the others have said, you can't have three foursomes each day.\n\nAlso, you could treat the three days as mini tournaments.  On the first day, pair everyone up as I stated.  At the end of the first day, you can determine a first, second, third and fourth place winner in each foursome.\n\nOn the second day, you can pair the threesomes up by their position at the end of the first day.  For example, players a, e and i would be paired up since they were the first place winners at the end of the first day.\n\nOn the third day, you could play three foursomes, but have two two-man tournament within each foursome.  For example, players a, e and i could be matched up with second or third place players that they haven't played to determine first, second and third place in the tournament.  Players b, f and j would be playing for fourth, fifth and sixth place, etc.\n\nThis needs to be refined, but I hope I gave you some ideas.  This solution does provide you with a way to pair everyone up so that they are playing with someone different each day.

STEP 1: Stand directly over the ball. \n\nSTEP 2: Place your left heel on the front of the ball, and keep your foot on the ground.\n\n STEP 3: Position the top of your right foot on the back of the ball so that just your toes are touching the ground. \n\nSTEP 4: Roll the ball 2 to 3 inches up your left heel with your right foot. \n\nSTEP 5: Lean forward so all your weight is on your left foot. \n\nSTEP 6: Flick your left heel up quickly with force as you lean forward. Your momentum and the heel flick sends the ball over the back of your head so that it lands in front of you, hence the "rainbow kick." \n\nSTEP 7: Take a step forward to regain control of the ball. \nI HOPE IT WORKS! GOOD LUCKKK

Send down a SCUBA diver to look!  Just kidding.  Your idea to pump out the well and see what happens sounds good.  If you have a camcorder, you could tie it to a rope and lower it to the bottom to have a peek like in the movie Volcano.

Looks like the first answerer has no idea of what you're asking.\n I'll walk you through the math.\n1 atmosphere is equal to 1.01325 bars\nYou get a 1 atm change for every 33 feet in depth. We also have to take into account 1 atm already present at the surface. \n So:\nLets convert the bars to atm's\n20  divided by 1.01325 = 19. 738465 and change.\n That gives you your number of atmospheres equivalent to 20 bars.\n Subtract 1 atm for surface air pressure. This leaves you with 18.738465 atmosphere's to find the depth.\n We know that 1 atm is approx 33 feet in a column of water so \n18.738465 X 33 = 618.369345 feet\n There you go. To get a 20 Bar pressure, you need to be at 618 feet. approximately. Pretty dark down there.\n\nEdit to muddiver.\n \n Appendix C of the USN divers manual contains phone numbers for NOAA and the experimental diving unit, nothing but phone numbers. :)\n What you are referring to is in chapter 2 2-12 table 2-10 and the numbers actually are 33.9139 FW  and 33.066 FSW to a bar in there. I used the standard recreational scuba numbers in my calculations above as they're used more widely and 33 (the accepted standard) is an easier number for everyone to remember and rounded the numbers for the same reason. Also, you forgot to include surface air pressure in your result. That induced an error of an extra atm or 33 feet deeper than the actual result really is. Fine for ultra conservative deco schedules but not the answer he was going for.\n I own the book by the way. :)

Open it fully (not hard) and back off 1/4 to 1/2 half turn. No more or you may cause turbulence in the 1 st stage (heat it doesn't need) and potentially causing condensation in there. Not a good thing for the reg and definitely bad news if you're diving a normal reg and even an environmental, in freezing conditions. It can also cause a possible a supply issue at depth, when you need it most. Leaving it fully open, could cause the valve to stick, making detaching the 1 st stage a vexing experience to say the least.\n It is part of the course, you may have just missed it. I've seen Instructors whip through that part mumbling.\n\nEdit: I disagree with Don on the fully open part regarding overheads etc. So NOT true nor taught in any wreck course or technical diving course. You ARE taught to know your manifold without the need to think. If indeed you do start to turn it the wrong way, the little it has been shut is an immediate indicator. Also, when it's backed off just that little bit from open full, it has NO impact on supply or smoothness of flow to the 1st stage.\n\n Edit: Yup, ask your buddies, they'll agree. As for the fella that answered last...well I guess he's never seen one occur nor read even the OW manual from PADI ( I dug it out, it's in there.). It DOES happen. Just like that outdoor tap that you opened too far and need a wrench to close.\n Due to the amount of dive related questions that are popping up, this evening during a social at the local pub, I asked a pal of mine that owns a 5 star Padi to join under his shop's name. A number of years ago, this man saved my life on a wreck dive, and he's about to become a PADI Director. That's about as high as you get in that particular org as well as standing in my book. I'm not an instructor ( I got bugged again to do the course tonight for free), hence my reluctance to put the word of "god" into some of my answers here. Mine is strictly advice and experience.\n He can. Hopefully he'll join.\n If you're curious, his shop's web site is www.coltcreekdiving.com\n heck, I think there may be a pic or two of me in there too.
