Agreed! I'm also pretty impressed that she found anywhere in the park that was 45 feet deep! I think I got to, like, 32 feet there once....
I was in the ferry lane, of course!
.... at night
... without a light
... at 500 PSI
... in shorts ...
Textbook dive, I think!

OH, but I should also say that my hoses were well tucked in and not threatening to snag on anything.

FWIW I finally posted an
HD version of this movie to better feel the sharkyness in full screen mode.
I still haven't made bubbles underwater since my last dive report. It's really time I start a dive buddy search in earnest.

Boy, whatever your company pays that videographer, it's worth it! Beautiful shots of beautiful underwater creatures, and you, too, Eric
(Kidding -- you're looking good, and that couple of inches of knee drop with the frog kick will go away if you just torture your glutes a bit more.)

Thanks Lynne
When people ask why I'm so core-workout crazy I'll tell them it's because of my frog kick.

Yes. Here's hoping that all euphemistic hose routing is fine.

Dude. That was amazing. I've never seen a whale, except for some Orcas waaaay off in the distance last summer, and I've never seen an Oceanic Whitetip- they're beautiful animals. Great vid. Your job might suck, for all I know, but the jobsite is pretty neat.
