I grew up snorkeling in the lakes of British Columbia, and since childhood I have tended to spend the majority of my swimming time underwater. In summer I like to collect cans and bottles off the bottoms of lakes in the Vancouver area.
Last summer I found that I was getting down around 35' without great difficulty (using wal-mart fins and mask) and I don't want to do too much too soon now that I've acquired some proper gear.
Eventually I plan to take some classes, but out of curiosity, what is a sensible depth limit for an untrained diver swimming alone?
