Very informative, as always. Thanks.
Great to have professional safety info flowing through
I often have dizzyness when surfacing but as it dissapears almost instantly I have never worried about it. Thanks for clarification.
Very comprehensive talk but I notice that this focuses on 'South African' diving. By this I mean he assumes that everyone dives with a hood.
