I've also heard from my instructor that some ppl will have very bad nose bleeds when they come out. Don't be afraid as it can be normal if the person has sinus.

munkeyflo, sometimes i do have minor nose bleed due to my sinus problem.. but nothing worries. Those who have sinus issue also might have difficulties to equalize.. but once you are used to it, everything will be ok..

Yea, from what my instructor told me, sometimes the new open water divers will freak out because most of the time those that is having nose bleed doesn't know that their nose is bleeding and the mask will have lots of blood and all that. So others will be scared or may scare off others. lol. He said it's like a free sinus operation cause most of his students who have experience that, say that their sinus is pretty much cleared after that. Is yours like that too?
*
i don't bleed that much until freak out other diver.. hehehe..
normally it only happened during my first dive.. and remaining dives ok already.. i do feel difference after the first dive as my sinus problem gone for few days.. hehehe

waahh.. munkeyflo and putra much more experience diver.. i wish to do that also.. huhuhu..

I know we will float by nature if we lay on water. But is it still true when our body is vertical to water surface? Perhaps this perception difference explains why I'm not able to do that... tongue.gif

Yeah, I know it's neither easy to dive into water. I'm a bit worry now as I'm under weight.
*
different water condition will affect your buoyancy in the water.. the most important is to get the right weight during your dive.. no issue if you are underweight, as you will be wear the weight with you..

i found out that i required only 3kg when diving in perhentian, redang or tioman.. but i need additional kilo when dive in mabul and sipadan..

oh thanks. prescription lense..? can I get on the spot ? may I know how much..?
*
yes, u get it on the spot but it depends whether the shop have the lense power that you wear.. you can use the lense power lower than the normal power that you use because the image bias inside water.. like me, my spec power 325 but i use 300 for the mask lense..

i'm not sure the price at the dive shop in 1 Utama.. i bought mine during the dive expo, quite cheap because got discount..
