    Very cool - Drinking my coffee and getting cought up and watched the vids, Could not help but chuckle a bit but your son is so cool and really into it. You've got to be proud.. My daughter is 16 and getting her OW now.. It's feels good to watch her train, I need a video cam to record the stuff like you are. Any case, great work, let us know how he does with "Flippers" (at that age, terminology may need work).

    The swimshoes/fin combo works ok, but I think they might be a little stiff for him, wants to bicycle them. Pool is closed for the next week, so we have some down time before trying the fins again. Hopefully he will get used to them quickly.

    Extremely proud of him! It was funny when I first started teaching him, he would jump in from the side and swim half way across the pool but wouldn't take a breath. Once he started taking breaths there was no stopping the boy.

    I bet you can't wait to go diving with her when she is certified, I can not wait until that day comes for my son.

    He will be very very comfortable in the water when it is time to get OW certified.
    I felt very good doing mine (with a lot of swimming/ snorkeling exp growing up)

    I did find a snorkel and fins that mostly fit him now. We are going to try it out doing some snorkeling during the Invasion of Cozumel
