i'm excited about this, jim & kelly! i've not done any sm, but larry wants to move that way, so it's a good time to glean some good tips.
Did you drop a "me" out of that line...
if not, Larry sure posts a lot of "advice" in the sidemount forum for someone that hasn't even "moved that way" yet... Watchin, eatin my co
Either way, I would have possibly gone if it wasn't Easter weekend. Hope it goes well.
well, i guess you could look at it both ways, though it would be an 'us' missing. he's done some, but is in the early stages (though past most of the real futzing). i've only had on the harness in street clothes to lament that boobs get in the way. so while he has some sm cave dives, he feels he has lots to learn, and i have no sm dives at all.
It's hard to get too sidemounty when the buddy is not and that forms some of the "move that way" rationale.
There's all kinds of 'advice' available, mine comes from a perspective of being rather new to sidemount and still actively exploring various options. There is value in that to other fairly new sidemount divers - in some cases because it differs from the perspective and advice that might come from a sidemount diver with lots of experience but different goals.
In some cases the responses that are out there are a bit cryptic with no explanation of the logic used in getting there. "Do it this way cuz I say so" tends to limit discussion and it tends to make it harder to understand the reasons for a particular approach.
A "What do you do with boobs when you sidemount dive" thread would make an interesting read.
See all of you there !!!! I can hardly wait !!!
