No, I strongly disagree with your characterization. I have no problem with crawling.alemaozinho:you propably speak of your past experience when you learned how to dive aye?You put everyone in the same pocket,thats wrong!You have to crawl before walking and you surely forgot the time when you where crawling! : Peace
I do have a problem where the people who haven't learned to "walk" yet are teaching others how to do so. And that's what that post was all about.
As someone else on here earlier pointed out "it isn't that hard to blow bubbles." He's exactly right - but that's not diving. That's going underwater with a Scuba tank on and being a threat to yourself and the environment. And THAT, my friend, is what is happening far, far too often. And the sad part is, too often those people think that's all there is to it.
Diving is supposed to be fun. Think how much more fun it would be if people knew how to actually do it. Instead, they get taught how to kneel on a pool bottom or bob around vertically in the water column. That's not diving. That's just an accident in the water wearing fins. Or, sadly enough - some open water scuba instructors delivering 1 day PADI courses.
Sad.
