Alrighty with the murky lake waters around here, in between the miles of beaches, are warm enough for me, Zellet had been ready to finally get certified and Together on his first dive as a Certified Jr Diver want to launch several Helium filled balloons from about minus 30 feet...
Planning so far:
Found a one time use Balloon Helium container, cost 25$
Found balloons and Glow sticks for a possible evening launch, Can you say UFO
Found the need for a video camera to video tape the balloons leaving the surface of the water.
Now this is where the question comes to play, I guess it really boils down to doing a multiple launch or single launch, as would it be better to fill a game bag with several balloons on the surface prior to the dive and Drag the bag down, using extra lead, and release the smaller balloons while filling the much larger special balloon? or fill the balloons at depth and release as they are filled ending with the large one?
thanks
