Disappointed
Expected to be regaled with a story of how you got stoned senseless with some Nitrous and had the most epic adventure of your life..while your dive buddy tried to wake you from the stupor
My final simulated rescue I did have to rescue a fairly hefty person,when I got to shore I yelled at some random divers to come assist. They responded instantly without question and we backboarded the rescue :)
Think part of the goal is to delegate and get assistance,not solo the entire experience
Since you're heading Kruger Park - head to Sodwana Bay at least for some of the best Fish Life in the country (comparable to Moz imo) and nice warm water diving
For Cape Town you're looking at doing some Cold Water diving with mostly coral/wrecks and Great Whites if thats your thing
You have some options equipmentwise,and the options of where they are mounted/attached is based on comfort and budget
In general divers require (and are trained to use)
1) Depth Gauge
2) Pressure Gauge
and 3) some sort of bottom timer
Cheapest option is a 2/3 Console unit attached to the...

Personally,I find exercising equalization beforehand helps quite a bit to stretch it out and get the fear sorted before it becomes a problem
Would need more details though,when in the dive are you struggling to equalize? I've found that if i'm in very cold water after...
Sounds pretty par for a newly minted deep diver

The course dives generally expose you in a safer way to the effects of narcosis so you can learn how your body reacts and how to...
Been there as the victim of such a dive gone awry (12 minute dive and I called it myself - DM was being a tard swimming up a ripping current). It's just one of those things that can happen. DM Fee was fair
I've also experienced most panic with women,but that doesn't necessarily translate to the gender itself being more susceptible
Could just be observational based on differences in body types etc the instructors might be exposed to and their narcosis experience (inaccurate given the small sample...
This is definitely true,I have marks some days from the extra pressure standing around
Can be a bit floaty at the butt when empty but other than that,fairly unnoticeable,it's not that much bigger than the 40 imo
We went july to aliwal shoal. Saw whales cruising by which was awesome. August and early september are best further north. June you want to hit the south coast ;) imo

Lol,if i'm a certified instructor and you come to me with such crap i'd tell you to go fly,since i'm only MSD though i'd still tell you to go fly with a rule like that. Sounds like somebody wants sales
