    I'm not sure how to do a warhammer in a dry suit?

    So someone at DEMA was trying to explain this maneuver for feeding reef fish that you have to get inverted in the water to do and I can't quite wrap my mind around it.

    If someone could supply pictures it might be very helpful, especially if anyone has figured out how to do it in a dry suit for people like myself that wear steel tanks?

    Much appreciated, thanks



    This one's for you netdoc

    Wow..I had lots of witty comments, But I suppose it depends on the drysuit zipper,. Processing....(just threw up a little in my mouth..).

    "They called themselves Guerrilla Divers.
    Composed of elite divers with Macho mentalities, back when men were men, and FEAR was a lispy companion of the common Man. It was a time before insurance liabilities, lawsuits or beauracratic regulation of the "sport". Guerrilla divers didn't need "Buoyancy Compensator Vests". In fact, "Anyone who needs a BC deserves to drown" was a popular adage. Exploration and the Hunt came first, excitement and fun followed. Safety was the stepchild of fitness, good reflexes and a cool head.
    This was a time of great Adventure."

    With a dry suit, no need to invert. In fact, you will want to stay somewhat vertical for the rest of the dive. Good thing you dive solo.
    Never underestimate the power of stupid people in large groups.

    Warhammer works a lot better if you just dive nude, but it still wants me wanna gag..
    I wonder if periodic short term exposure to risk can decrease your longterm risk of accidents. I hope it does..

    An extra p-valve, a she-pee catheter, and a very strategical intake of fiber and laxatives?

    Don't take off your drysuit until your home!
    Life's a beach, then you dive.
