I have a question because I felt like such a dork on my dives today.
Are there any hints for maintaining neutral buoyancy when you have no visual references, other than your computer
I went diving in a lake with the worst visibility I've experienced to date. It was maybe 3-4 feet in good spots, less than 2 in others. Unless I was two feet above the bottom, I had no idea where the bottom was - usually until I crashed into it If I was standing on the bottom trying to figure out where I was, I couldn't even see my feet sometimes.
I felt overweighted on the dive, but I'm not sure that was the case. I mean, if I'd been able to see the bottom I think I could have avoided hitting it when a high rock came out of nowhere.
My computer is scratched, my knees are bruised and I am feeling (yet again) like i suck at diving
