A FEW THINGS TO CONSIDER ABOUT OUR VIDEOS

We harvested this footage from 61 minutes of video that was shot for the purpose of recording diver skills but not scripted or designed to target  specific performance requirements.
Our goal was to present two reasonably  respectable divers who are not flutter kicking,  sculling with their hands, dangling their huge consoles and 2nd stages and trashing the underwater environment. 
We are instructors.  We are expected to have those skills. We can't account for why most dive professionals do not demonstrate those same qualities.

Maureen has an exceptional frog kick. It is fun to watch and the long fins that she is wearing afford an opportunity for viewers to study the elements of this alternative propulsion method. John has less flexible ankles and the left one suffered some damage in a unicycle crash. He is a cave diver and his kick, while not as pretty as Maureen's, is very powerful. In the "kick glide kick" footage of one of the videos the camera man, a long time Cozumel Professional, is flutter kicking flat out in jet fins in order to keep up with the action.

Tech divers, DIR divers and other purists may take exception to Maureen's somewhat "heads up profile". We acknowledge that she is less flat in a single tank than she is in doubles. YES Maureen looks good in doubles even though she has no desire to be a cave diver; past, present or in the future. If you watch her in the videos you may notice that this posture is a subtle choice, a concious adjustment and not the result of the distribution of  her weights. This is a choice she makes when she has a camera. A choice that she can afford to make because her air consumption is so fantastic that she could, based on air , find herself solo diving on almost any dive. She operates inches away from things without ever making contact. Some of our video ended up on the cutting room floor simply because we knew that people would have trouble believing that she could possibly be that close to things without touching.

John is a cave diver and he is the force that drives BuoyancyQuest. We emphasize tech diver quality fundamentals but we try to show you that recreational divers can and should try to acquire these skills and substitute them for the less efficient methods that they were taught and currently use.
