Wreck dive video with my DAAM

Fri Feb 01, 2013 2:49 am

Here's a little video of a shore based wreck we dove recently. I am using a DAAM on a ABS backpack, Seatec HC, and a pony with a Mk5/109. The mask is a Kinugawa with a purge but no finger pockets; equalization is via a neoprene pad similar to a Swimaster wideview (which it is probably a knock off of):

Really enjoyed the video Dale. Lots of cool critters! What kind of water temps were you diving in? Thanks for posting!

I think about 45F. Up here in the winter ocean we see it down to 42ish and in the summer up to 50ish. The lakes get colder of course.

Great video :0 I got cold just watching it! Thanks for sharing with us.
Doing it right should include some common sense, not just blindly following specs and instructions. .Gary D, AWAP on SB

Plumose anemone. In Calf I think they call them Metridiums. They grow like weeds around here. Soon I will finish editing the second video that has a wall of them in it.
