    face-up underwater without a mask

    Without the feeling of evolving a human being is unable to be satisfied, we are programmed this way.

    face-up underwater without a mask

    Yes of course, I already read that particular article long ago. Closing the soft palate only works face-down or face-fwd underwater for most people. For the lucky ones though, closing it may generate enough pressure in the nasal cavity to keep water out in a face-up position as well, but that's...

    face-up underwater without a mask

    Theorically, yes, air floats up as bubbles underwater, still a lot of people can make it trapped in their nasal passages in any position underwater. I may have a reason not to believe this if one or two people said it out of 10000, but the truth is that I have seen it with my own eyes many times...

    face-up underwater without a mask

    The breathing technique I'm talking about is a very common skill even among those who have never had anything to do with swimming or freediving in their lives. If someone chooses swimming as a hobby, and wants to do it in a decent way (and why wouldn't they?), then this skill is essential due...

    face-up underwater without a mask

    Angelo, I want to learn it, because a human being is known for being keen on learning new things and evolve... I think this is something we shouldn't argue about. As for the physiology reasoning of yours, I have acquaintances who USED TO get water up their noses in that position, but according...

    face-up underwater without a mask

    John, I'd like to be able to do it, because I've seen with my own eyes many times how people (including a lot of friends and acquaintances) can be face-up underwater with air stuck in their noses so they don't flood the cavities, and how natural it is to them. Not one user in this topic also...

    face-up underwater without a mask

    Im gonna go find my nasal CT CD before the surgery so I can post them too. Btw, I also thought about a central neural system problem, mine may not be sophisticated enough to control my breathing that punctually...

    face-up underwater without a mask

    Outbound, yes, I know what is that "all I have to do", but face-up underwater I've never succeeded in creating that slight outward pressure and keep water out with it, despite 8 months of practice and a couple of thousands of tries... As I mentioned in my previous post, air refuses to act like a...

    face-up underwater without a mask

    Thank you for your reply Yes indeed, face down the air acts like a plug in my nose, if water wants to come further in my nose as I go deeper, I can press it out without blowing a bubble. Face-up it is completely different. If feels like "it leaks", I can't describe it better. For example, no...

    face-up underwater without a mask

    Bubblesong, thank you for your reply. My question is that have you ever knowingly practiced to be able to regulate the air in your nose so evenly and punctually even at that slightest pressure? Or you've had this ability since you can remember and it works as a reflex? How did you exactly...

    face-up underwater without a mask

    I'm terribly sorry, I think my post was misunderstandable. My question is not related to scuba-diving, I just heard many times that it is taught during scuba-diving courses. No. And this is what my question is really about. I know a lot of people in my life who don't get water up their noses...

    face-up underwater without a mask

    It is kind of dissappointing to see no one replies to this topic despite the number of views... I bet most of you are experienced enough in this and have a detailed anatomy knowledge so that you could tell me some tips...

    face-up underwater without a mask

    Dear Members! I heard that it is taught during scuba diving courses how to equalize air pressure in the nose when it is not protected underwater while a person is in a face-up position. I know that for a lot of people, closing the soft palate + pressing with the diaphragm + pressing the end of...
