Very well done to the 4 super divers! Mike and Matthew took like fish to water. You could not stop them, my only concern is that Mike will get so entrenched in his deep water thoughts he will forget to breath and swim off into the deep blue. Matthew on the other hands started his advanced training already by trying a weight belt dump and practicing his alternative air breathing (for real) he he he. Both as calm as sea cucumbers under water though.
The 2 who impressed me was the ladies, both not so impressed with this new adventure the guys came up with, and like normal sane people tend to be, they were not so impress with this water in the face thing. But they stuck to it, Genevieve’s breakthrough came early in the pool already, the mask kept leaking more water than the pool had to offer, but she kept her calm, no bailout, finished her skills and after that, pure stubbornness kept her going.
Julie kept a straight face during the Open water sessions, but when Matthew had weight belt problem at 15 meters, she stuck to him and tried to help, all calm and calculated, that was the breakthrough. Then I knew they were ready for the big seas :-)
All 4 qualified with flying colours and are soon on their way to Mauritius for some real diving !! Enjoy you guys !
Taking a quick break Mike :-)
