    We're supposed to dive with a snorkel? In all seriousness I asked during my AOW training dives if standards required I have a snorkel with me, or if I have to actually have it attached to my mask. I was told it had to be attached to my mask, to which I asked if I could attach it to my spare mask. I absolutely hate snorkels.

    ....and in case something happens while I am underwater (like black out from lack of O2), he can use the built in recovery mechanism in the reel as pictured above

    If I'm diving in Laguna Beach where the law requires a snorkel in your possesion I duct tape it to the back of my tank. The rest of the time it's buried somewhere in my garage until I decide to go snorkelling.
