16th dive - Ao Packard

Last dive at the Surin Islands and after working on it all week I managed to do my first 60 minute dive.

Its really quite hard for me to compete air wise with my dive group as its basically me, 3 girls and ping. Men are normally more heavy on air than woman and then the larger you are the quicker you consume air. At the start of this trip 45 minute dives was my norm as I just run out of air.
Then Nigel, the senior dive instructor, gave me some tips on how to change my breathing and to drop weight off my weight belt and to just float instead of kicking and I have been practicing this and it actually works to reduce my air consumption.
